The foolish King Midas and the golden touch -- Pandora and the box of mystery -- Pygmalion and his rocky relationship!!! -- The abduction of Persephone -- Arachne gets a big head -- Perseus vs. two nasty kings and a really ugly monster -- Pyramus and Thisbe: an icky love story -- The short flight of Icarus! -- Hercules and the ten labors (give or take a few) -- The drawn-out finale ...
From Hercules' snake assassin slippers to Arachne's wicked weaver rap songs, these are the mythic monsters and Hellenic heroes that have captured Western culture for centuries--but a whole lot more fun. Kids won't be able to resist the bickering sheep, unruly rulers, and undercover details of Amazing Greek Myths--while teachers, librarians, and parents can relish this new way to share moral messages that remain as relevant today as they were a thousand years ago.
