I don't know how many Kindergartners go to their librarians and ask for books on Myths, but mine does. We are on a Percy Jackson kick in our house (Kidlet loves the movies) which started me re-reading all the Rick Riordan books, and had Kidlet looking for something age appropriate to satisfy her thirst for more as well. The school librarian sent her home with this, and we love it. It is five different legends with fabulous illustrations. The retellings are true to the originals without being too graphic or bawdy. It would be lovely if there were an entire collection of these exploring all the different legends --but we will definitely be seeking out Anthony Masters's Roman Myths to continue our journey.
