Mythologica by Dr. Stephen P. Kershaw (Ancient Lore)
Amazon's No. 1 Children's Non-Fiction Book of 2019, Mythologica is an illustrated encyclopedia of Greek mythology unlike any other. Featuring startlingly beautiful and exquisitely otherworldly portraits of mythological characters in eye-popping colour from artist Victoria Topping, paired with authoritative text from Classics scholar Dr Stephen P. Kershaw, this is mythology brought vividly to life.
Journey back to ancient Greece to uncover the colourful lives of 50 powerful gods and goddesses, earth-dwelling mortals and terrifying monsters. From the fearless Athena and her meddlesome ways to the brave Odysseus and his remarkable journey home, discover why these incredible stories remain woven into our culture today. Each boldly designed spread presents a mythological figure with their name in Greek, defining attributes, and story summary, alongside intriguing sidelights and famous tales like the Odyssey and the Trojan War.
Victoria Topping's artwork is a mesmerizing fusion of photography, painting and cut-paper collage that perfectly captures the blending of human and fantastic traits at the heart of myth. An electrifying visual journey paired with digestible, engaging text makes this the perfect introduction to Greek mythology and a beautiful display reference for the whole family.
