This complete compendium of Greek and Roman mythology is designed specifically to be read to children ages five and up. Fascinating histories of many common words that originated in these myths provide a perfect way to raise a child's level of "cultural literacy". Selections include "Jason and the Golden Fleece", stories from the Illiad and the Odyssey, and more.

William F. Russell is the author of The Parents' Handbook to Grammar and Usage, Classics to Read Aloud to Your Children, and More Classics to Read Aloud to Your Children. Dr. Russell lives in Carmichael, California, and lectures widely on language and the ways parents--and teachers--can improve the achievement levels of children.

Every child deserves this book. Those who do the reading aloud will be enlightened and rewarded, too."--Edwin Newman
