4.0 out of 5 stars Awesome book if you love mythology!

My 11 year old son has been loving this book and we thought we'd write a review.

This book has many very interesting myths in it and has you wanting to read more. It's pretty cool that it was written in 1915, but of course that means that some of the language is a bit old-fashioned. It's very readable. The only downside that we see is that a few of the stories go on a bit longer than they would need to.

Overall an excellent book for anyone who loves mythology. By the way, my favorite story is the story of Proserpine!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book
Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2016
This is a book with somewhat dated language, but the illustrations are gorgeous! I bought it for the art alone, although it has some more obscure myths in it, like Idas and Marpessa.It is not easy to find an original hardcover edition in good shape, by the way.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not at all what I expected
Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2019
This was more of an anthology of mythology than a book of the actual stories. Not at all what I was looking for.
