A First Book of Myths

Do you remember ever wishing that you could turn everything to gold after hearing this story as a child? Or do you remember the ending where the father hugs his daughter and she becomes a statue of gold and asks that his gift be taken away. Myths can teach us lessons about life, even though the stories are mostly invented out of pure imagination. Children can learn not to be greedy, envious or vain. They can also learn to be loving, brave and good friends. The stories in this book reflect the qualities in humans we like and dislike. Things have not changed much in thousands of years. Children still love to hear stories. Beautifully illustrated and contains many new stories I had never heard myself. ~The Rebecca Review
