Mary E. Burt and Zénaïde Ragozin adapted these tales from a reader used in the primary schools of Athens. They tell of the infant Herakles strangling the serpents, his service to Eurystheus and his twelve labours, from the Nemean lion and the Hydra to the golden-horned hind, and go on to Jason, the Argonauts and other heroes.
Clear, lively retellings that suit young readers meeting the Greek myths for the first time. Download the free EPUB.
