The New Windmill Book Of: Greek Myths Link

In a quiet school library, a dusty copy of The New Windmill Book of Greek Myths Geraldine McCaughrean

Unlike a single continuous narrative (like the Percy Jackson novels) or a sprawling, scholarly tome (like Robert Graves’s The Greek Myths ), this book is an anthology. It presents a curated selection of the most famous stories: the creation myth (Chaos, Gaia, Uranus, Cronus, and the Titans), the rise of Zeus and the Olympians, and then a roll-call of the greatest hits. You’ll find Prometheus stealing fire, Pandora opening her jar (not box), the labours of Heracles, the hubris of Icarus, the tragic loves of Orpheus and Eurydice, the cunning of Odysseus, and the terrible fate of Oedipus. the new windmill book of greek myths
