Explore Greek Myths!

Praise for Explore Greek Myths! School Library “A jam-packed, informative title on ancient Greek myths. Yasuda isn’t just retelling the old familiar tales. Instead, she has placed the myths in context so that each chapter is a different exploration of ancient Greek life and culture… VERDICT An additional purchase for libraries, but useful for classrooms studying ancient Greek history and mythology.” Praise for other titles by Anita Yasuda: Explore Native American Cultures! School Library Journal “… A wide range of ages will be able to take something away from this entertaining and useful title. ” Explore Natural Resources! National Science Teachers Association “… a required science resource… the perfect activity book to instruct and demonstrate the immediate interconnectedness humans have with natural resources and the world.” Explore the Wild West! 2012 Gold Moonbeam Award School Library Journal “Entertaining and informative. This is a useful and engaging introductory overview of the Wild West.” Explore Simple Machines! Booklist “Yasuda writes in particularly clear, simple language, and intersperses her explanations with historical notes, jokes, and 25 easy projects … She also repeatedly urges readers to spot and classify the simple machines that are all around, encourages the use of a science notebook, and closes her discourse with descriptions of what inventors and engineers do.” Explore Water! School Library Journal “It’s impossible to read this book and not turn off the water while you brush your teeth. Children will come away with obscure facts and broad understandings about this vital resource …” Explore the Solar System! National Science Teachers Association “The inviting cover of this science book will attract the attention of young readers right from the start. This is a great book to entice young readers to read more and learn a little science along the way.”
