Grade 2-3?This simplified version of Hercules's adventures follows the myth accurately, but in a pedestrian manner. Though the bones are here, the life has been squeezed out of the story. The watercolor illustrations show a blond, muscular Hercules scantily clad, sporting the skin of the Nemean lion. Generously featured on every page, the action takes place in these garden-variety pictures. Little mention of the Olympians, plus the absence of Greek place names, gives this work the tone of Saturday afternoon television.?Angela J. Reynolds, West Slope Community Library, Portland, OR

Product Description
Although he is the strongest man in the world, Hercules must also use his
wits to complete the tasks that the jealous king has in store for him. From
giant ogres to fearsome Amazons, Hercules tackles his foes gamely. With the
rollicking humor of a tall tale, this retelling is an exciting first step into
Greek mythology.
