The Odyssey

64 pp. | DK | May, 2000 | Trade ISBN 0-7894-5455-7 $$14.95
(4) 4-6 Dorling Kindersley Classics series. Illustrated by Stuart Robertson. Mitchell retells Homer's Odyssey in clear prose that captures both the story and the complex character of Odysseus; the accompanying illustrations portray the majesty of this epic. While the historical information is useful, the inclusion of annotated color photographs and maps in sidebars is distracting.
