My grandchildren, aged 5 and 6, were entranced by the stories and loved the illustrations ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lovely book *by N***S on 3 May 2020* An excellent book. Smaller than I was expecting, but that may be because I didn’t read the measurements properly! I actually like the smaller size - it’s easier to manage as a book to read to my son rather than the larger A4 size. There are plenty of illustrations in the book which include lots of colour. This is nice because long reams of text can be dull for primary age children. The text itself is split into short paragraphs which are suitable for young readers (I would say Y3). There are six stories in the book, each of which are split into short chapters. At the end of the book there is a short section dedicated to the Greek Gods. I really like this book and it’s a great introduction to the Greek Myths. I’d recommend it for primary age children. Older children probably need something with more detail. ## Frequently Bought Together - Illustrated Stories from the Greek Myths - Aesop's Fables Hardcover: The Classic Edition by acclaimed illustrator, Charles Santore (Bedtime Stories With Moral Lessons) (Charles Santore Children's Classics) - D'aulaire's Book of Greek Myths --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/49700854-illustrated-stories-from-the-greek-myths-usborne-illustrated-stories-usbor](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/49700854-illustrated-stories-from-the-greek-myths-usborne-illustrated-stories-usbor) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-11-15*
