This review is from: Oh My Gods!: A Look-it-Up Guide to the Gods of Mythology (Mythlopedia) (Paperback)
I bought this book for my son (age 9) after reading the first Percy Jackson book. My son wanted to learn more about the Olympians and the Greek Gods. I gave him the book after school and he immediatly started to look through it. He spent the next half hour reading (choosing the book over his video games). He really enjoys the book and the colorful cartoons are fun and entertaining (at least for my son) As a quick look up reference guide, it's a fun book to have.

Great intro to mythology,

This review is from: Oh My Gods!: A Look-it-Up Guide to the Gods of Mythology (Mythlopedia) (Paperback)
Finally a fun new introduction to Greek mythology for the new millenium kids! Oh My Gods! goes a long way to capture the excitement and the fascination of those incredibly dynamic Mt. Olympus beings. I've loved Greek mythology since 1958, when my grandmother dusted off D'Aulaires Book of Greek Myths for me. D'Aulaire is still on my library's shelf -- and it's still just as dusty! Oh My Gods!, with its great graphics and photos, pop-up factoids, and crammed texts, will be greatly appreciated by kids raised on Dorling Kindersley layouts. This is a great addition to any mythology section, and it's the first book I'll give my grandchildren on the subject. Although not the last. As an introduction and a companion guide, Oh My Gods! is a lot of fun, but it just begins to scratch the depths of this fascinating subject.

This review is from: Oh My Gods!: A Look-it-Up Guide to the Gods of Mythology (Mythlopedia) (Paperback)
After reading the first of the Percy Jackson books, and being a lover of the Hercules and Xena television series from years back (am I old???), I realized that I could use a little supplemental knowledge regarding Greek mythology. But, I wasn't prepared to read The Odyssey!
This little book is a great way to begin to introduce Greek folklore to both young and old alike. It's presented in a light but logical fashion with lots of pictures and fun details. Don't pass it up...!!!
