I would read this to my class when we are learning about Greek gods and goddesses

Kids lit series as an intro to mythology. Wish we had not started with Aphrodite, you definitely have to end up describing how a married Aphrodite decides to have a bunch of boyfriends and have kids with them. Which, we got to talk about how that is definitely not choosing the right. So it's all good.
