(3) 4-6 Tales from the Odyssey series. Illustrated by Troy Howell. In these series books, Osborne skillfully relates episodes from Homer's epic poem the Odyssey. Brief chapters move these engaging retellings along at a snappy pace, and small vignettes of art open every chapter. Each book contains a note about Homer and the Odyssey and a note on sources. A glossary of gods and goddesses, with pronunciation, is included. [Review covers these Tales from the Odyssey titles: The Land of the Dead and The One-Eyed Giant.]
