4.0 out of 5 stars Cool graphic novel, November 24, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Graphic Myths and Legends: Odysseus: Escaping Poseidon's Curse: a Greek Legend (Paperback)
I teach students with learning disabilities. Some of my students struggle with reading, but are required to complete the same curriculum as their peers. This graphic novel is very helpful for students studying The Odyssey. The comic book style, colorful illustrations, and understandable text made it very appealing to my students. There is also a short index in the back that is helpful. I highly recommend this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars A great story, July 16, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Graphic Myths and Legends: Odysseus: Escaping Poseidon's Curse: a Greek Legend (Paperback)
I enjoyed this one, although Odysseus' story is enjoyable in any format. I hope this collection of Graphic Legends includes his arrival at Ithaca and his reclaiming of the throne. It is a story of courage, but it also has all the elements that we often find in the original Greek myths.
