5.0 out of 5 stars Great classroom resource, October 16, 2007
I first encountered this item as a student teacher several years ago. I was working in a 6th grade classroom in California. The social studies curriculum here at that age is a study of ancient civilizations. One area of that is ancient Greece. This was a wonderful compliment to what they already learned and got them excited about the content. When I got my own class I sought out a copy of this book and was dismayed to find that it was out of print. I tracked down a used copy and was thrilled when it arrived. I again used it to enrich social studies. Now I teach 4th grade where we have an Oral Language portion of our day. We do a lot of readers theater during that time period so I am happy to get this book out again. The plays are interesting and there are parts both large and small. We put on a performance for families at the end of the year.

5.0 out of 5 stars Infuses new life into old myrths, August 3, 1997
By A Customer
Great book, and not just for kids. It enkindled in me a reborn enthusiasm for myths -- and sent me scurrying back, first to Graves, Hamilton and Campbell(I had to test the waters), then back to grand old men themselves--Sophocles, Homer,et al. My eight rear old daughter, an anti-school snob, began desultorily reading one of the plays. A few minutes later she had me acting in her own enthusiastic production--with her hamming up the best parts.(She especially liked Zeus.) We didn't stop until we performed all eight. And she's learned something about myths. A chatterbox, she smiles knowingly now when I call her "Echo."

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Acting Out or Reader's Theatre, February 10, 2009
By Teacher La La (Meridian, ID United States) - See all my reviews
This resource is fabulous. Too bad it is out of print. If you buy it, you will not be disappointed with it. Our middle school reading teachers use this book for their reading and/or social studies class.
