Journey through ancient legends

This extensive collection brings together all the best-known Greek myths in a comprehensive volume perfect for any family bookshelf. From the adventures of Perseus and the labours of Heracles to the epic tale of the Trojan War, every story is told with fresh detail and vivid storytelling that captivates both children and adults alike.

Beautifully illustrated plates by Nathan Collins introduce all the characters—gods, heroes, and monsters—story by story, from the most famous figures like Zeus and Athena to the more obscure but equally fascinating characters of ancient Greece. The stories are richly told, bringing the drama and wonder of these timeless tales to life for modern readers.

Beyond the stories themselves, this book includes detailed maps of the ancient Greek world, a comprehensive glossary of names and terms, and an informative section on ancient Greek culture and the origins of these myths. A QR code even links to pronunciation guides and additional resources, making this an invaluable reference as well as an engaging read.

Suitable for children aged 10 years and up

What drew me to this collection is its completeness without feeling overwhelming. Brook and Milbourne have created a proper reference that families will return to again and again. The illustrations give each story visual weight, and I love that it includes the cultural context—helping children understand these weren't just stories, but reflections of how ancient people understood their world.
