Mythology for grade schoolers (Baussier)

This is an honest introduction to the stories of forty Greek gods and goddesses.  All the gory details including husbands and wives who are brothers and sisters (or fathers and daughters) and brief accounts of the violent acts that the gods committed are there but all is simply told.  Each god or goddess has a couple of pages in the book, complete with illustrations, interesting facts, genealogy, symbols and accomplishments, etc.  This reads more like a beginning reference book than a story-like retelling of the myths.  It is a good reference for those who want to learn about the early Greeks’ stories and world views.

I love to read, recommend books and open the world of reading to others. I tutor to ensure that the next generation of readers will know the joys of a good book because their reading skills have improved. I am an avid reader, especially of mysteries and fiction. I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses!
