(4) K-3 Greek Myths series. Illustrated by McLean Kendree. Each book provides a brief glimpse into a particular episode in Greek mythology. Although part of larger mythic cycles, the tales work well as stand-alone stories. Three different illustrators solidly convey the emotional impact of each narrative. The texts are somewhat stiff but easy to read and follow. Lists of characters assist with pronunciation. Reading list. Glos. Review covers these Greek Myths titles: Medusa's Stony Stare, Odysseus and the Cyclops, and Pandora's Vase.
