I borrowed this book from the library and read it to my six year old over the summer. He loved it and has become so interested in greek mythology as a result. It was really enjoyable for both of us to hear the stories. I love how before each story there is an intro to set the foundation for the story as well as a list of names/words with their pronunciations. I am heading into Powell's to pick up a copy to add to our library permanently.
