Noted historian and award-winning author Don Nardo has written many books for young people about American history. Nardo lives with his wife, Christine, in Massachusetts.
...provides readers with a terrific overview of the various gods
and goddesses from mythology.-- "LS 5385 blog"
Classic art partners with modern graphics to illustrate Don Nardo's
summaries of major myths and epics from Ancient Greece. The ancient
Greeks receive digital make-overs in a comic-like style that will
attract students. Teachers could use sections of any of the topics
to introduce the role of the hero, the power of myth, or the impact
the ancient Greeks have on modern thought. A key in the last
chapter visually summarizes the major places or people. The middle
chapters contain too much information and would have worked better
for students if shorter. Overall, students will be captivated by
the dramatic splash and will want to read these books for
entertainment as well as for research. Recommended.-- "Library
Media Connection"
Everything you ever wanted to know about Greek Gods and quite a bit
about their Roman counterparts is in this color illustrated guide.
. . .Good information for the mature reader.-- "Tucson Unified
School District (Tucson, AZ)"
