Amazing Immortals: A Guide to Gods and Goddesses Around the World

(3) 4-6 This handsome volume introduces gods and goddesses from around the world, organized by type (such as “Creation,” “Love,” and “Tricksters”). Each double-page spread describes the deity, their origin story, and their powers with a richly colored illustration in the artistic style of the culture from which that god or goddess originates. Side tabs on each spread identify the geographical region, culture, and time period (Greek and Roman gods are intentionally omitted). Back matter includes an extensive reading list and bibliography.
