Very good. My only complaint is that it's more for "teens" than "kids"

2.5 stars.
It was good until Chapter 3. Some of the illustrations are really nice, though not in color. The one thing that sets this book apart from other Greek mythology books is that it lists temples of worship and famous artistic depictions of the gods and goddesses.
Definitely not for “kids,” though.
