This book has beautiful illustrations and has a wonderful retelling of creation told in Greek myth. A great introduction to Ovid for young readers and familiarized with the Greek gods and its history.

Even though its a middle grade story it can still be enjoyed by any readers. I enjoyed this book and would recommend it.

Thank you North South Book inc. & Netgalley for the ARC.

It's not going to be one of my favourites, but I feel so much wiser and more grown-up after having read this.
I knew close to nothing about Greek mythology, so this really founded my knowledge.
Yes, it was long and a little boring in parts, but others were extremely interesting (especially because it's so old!).
