Very pretty and well done summary of Greek mythology for children, teens, and adults.
Reading nonfiction books for children can be a nice experience to revisit what you think you know, or refresh what you have forgotten. This is why I decided to read Goddess Power: 10 Empowering Tales of Legendary Women, a Kids’ Book of Greek & Roman Mythology.

First of all, Alida Massari's illustrations are stunning throughout the book. The cover art and goddesses are depicted so beautifully!
Now, the book! I read it cover-to-cover in one sitting, as it was captivating for this 40-something to get a review of Greek/Roman mythology told in a fun narrative way. Yung In Chae, our storyteller, is a Princeton and Cambridge-educated Classics expert who is able to tell the stories with detail and in a delightfully fun manner. The 10 stories are followed by an ...more

Thank you to Callisto Publisher's Club and Rockridge Press for this free ARC. The following review contains my honest opinions.
There are 10 short stories of Greek & Roman goddesses. These stories are concise and not too graphic for even small children. This book is a great first introduction to this mythology. There is also a pictorial reference containing a short description of various mythological creatures. I found the pronunciation guide to be an extremely helpful reference. I also ...more

I enjoyed this book. I was hoping it could be used for 3rd grade, since this is part of the curriculum but I think it would be better for older grades based on the content. Very interesting! I enjoyed reading the background information on these women.
