Description
Atticus the Storyteller's journey across the seas is perilous—but young readers, discovering ancient Greece for the first time, are in safe hands with this 10th book of classic tales
Â
Whose was the face "that launched a thousand ships?" Why did King Menelaus call other kings to war? Whose body was worth its weight in gold? The answers are here! In the 10th volume of this lively and essential introduction to ancient Greek myths, readers can thrill to stories of war and conquest, heroism and hi-jinks. They will meet Achilles and find out why someone's weakness is called their "Achilles' heel." Meanwhile, what's happened the Atticus the Storyteller and his quest to visit Troy? Could he still be at sea, after all this time?
