Stunning and unusual collection

This is an absolutely gorgeous collection of various goddess stories from a wonderful gathering of cultures, and I believe the Hyman mother-daughter team is the only way to present them. Katrin Tchana retells these classic stories, each displaying various goddess attributes and lessons whilst mother Trina Schart uses her amazing talent of illustration. Fantastic.

excellent collection

This is a fine collection of myths . Probably not of sufficient interest for children under 7. Rick
