FOLKTALES AND NURSERY RHYMES
Kimmel, Eric A.

The McElderry Book of Greek Myths

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Pep Montserrat. This book focuses on minor gods and heroes of ancient Greek mythology, deftly handling such stories as "Jason and the Argonauts" and "Echo and Narcissus." Kimmel's text is clear and accessible (though, compared with the classic d'Aulaire, largely sanitized). Montserrat's angular digital illustrations are visually enticing enough for younger readers while incorporating a tongue-in-cheek humor older readers will enjoy.
