Synopsis
From high in the skies - 'The Starry Hunter' tells the story of Orion - to deep beneath the waves - meet the god Poseidon in 'The Dophin's Message', here is a selection of 8 spellbinding stories vividly illustrated and told by a highly-acclaimed author/illustrator partnership. As well, THE DOLPHIN'S MESSAGE takes us through the fourth leg of Atticus the Stoyteller's quest to arrive in Troy in time for the storytellers' championship - but will he win? A perfect introduction to Greek myths, ideal for bedtime reading alone and sharing with friends at school.
Review
Lucy Coates tells these Greek Mythological stories in a very uncomplicated way ensuring that the young reader enjoys these stories of old. Atticus is our guide through these 8 stories as usual.
Anthony Lewis does the very colourful illustrations excellently that encourage the reader to turn the page, and of course Simon Russell Beale's rendition makes this version of the book very informative and entertaining.
I very much enjoyed listening to these stories bringing back some childhood memories of when I used to read them. Recommended.
