"Journey to Labyrinth with THESEUS. Can He Deafet the Minotaur and Scape the Maze?"
A Happy version of Theseus and Minotaur for the young readers with a lot of bright and beautiful pictures.
Theseus, son of the King of Athens (or Poseidon?) has an important mission, defeat the Minotaur (half-man and half-bull who has locked in the maze and doesn't like heroes). Ariadne, daughter of King Minos decides to help Theseus in Labyrinth.
Many thanks to Edelweiss for granted me four beautiful colorful mythology stories by Sonia Elisabetta Corvaglia and illustrated by Anna Láng, I have given my honest review.

Достолепни богове с невероятни способности, готови да променят съдбата на смъртните. Могъщи герои със свръхчовешка сила и остър ум, които поемат съдбата си в собствените си ръце и отървават света от страховити зверове и всевъзможни заплахи. Далечни пътешествия до чудни и тайнствени места, където дебнат опасности и магии. Всичко това може и да ви звучи като сюжет на съвременен филм или зрелищен комикс, изпълнен с екшън. Но нека не забравяме, че повечето от нашите съвременни митове са естествено продължение на древните такива. Предците на днешните супергерои са античните смелчаци като Херкулес, Одисей и Тезей. И няма нужда да чакате, за да бъдат представени на децата в училище под формата на препоръчителна литература. Можете да се потопите в историите, положили толкова много от основите на съвременната драматургия още сега, с помощта на книгите от поредицата „Малка библиотека на гръцките митове“ на изд. „Timelines“. Адаптираните преразкази на митовете са дело на италианската писателка Соня Елизабета Корваля, а атрактивните стилизирани илюстрации дължим на художничката Анна Ланг.

Илюстрациите и изданието са прекрасни, но текстът не ми допадна.

Още една чудесна книга от поредицата гръцка митология, разказана за деца. Възрастова група 5-7 години. Чудесни илюстрации, които привличат вниманието, добре балансиран текст и логика на действията – кой, защо, как, къде... което е ключово за разбирането.
Вече и с въпросник в Книговище.

I loved all the romance and love, but I can’t stop feeling sad for the Minotaur he didn’t ask to be a monster he just was and he looked cool like so cool.
