Cute, kid's book, just me reading absolutely everything I can about Hermes

Basic introduction to Greek myth and the god Hermes for grade school and younger middle school readers, so would be appropriate for a short report or if fans of Percy Jackson would like to go deeper into Greek mythology. I have a B.A. degree in Classics, so was using the book myself to brush up some basics as I am using a fictional version of Hermes for some fan fiction I'm writing.
