Is there anything prettier than the Usbourne collection? They seem to have one for every conceivable subject, and for children they are an excellent gateway and springboard into the world of myths and legends.
Slightly simplified versions of the original myths, condensed but not watered down, and beautifully illustrated throughout. Definitely recommend as a gift for an imaginative younger person

Today's goodnight story. If you're looking for a wonderful book about #GreekMythology to read to your kids, then I highly recommend this one! The stories are nicely written and very close to their (sometimes) more mature and violent forerunners. It's also wonderfully #illustrated

tpixie My middle schoolers read a different version which was good too. Love there is one for younger kids too! 8y

A box filled with all the miseries of earth and on the very bottom of it hope. Whenever I come across the story of Pandora's box I can't help but wonder why HOPE is there too. Of course so we can keep going and hoping, but that answer always seems too easy and when trying to figure it out I always feel like close to the actual answer but I can't grab it 🤔

Faibka 🤔 Good question... I'll have to think about that one. 8y

This book is really heavy and pretty big and my mom seriously will have to send some of my stuff with the post to Japan, because books are the top priority content of my suitcase 🙈📚💓 If I have to choose between something to wear and something #illustrated the choice is clear!

Faibka It looks amazing! 😍 8y

Dear Littens, I'm almost back for real, but not properly connected yet. Miss u all so much and wanted to share these beautiful books which I got in Berlin. 2017 is going to be very #illustrated ❤️ Thanks to you I've discovered how beautiful graphic novels and comics can be and I'm also looking forward to read many new volumes in the time to come.

Sarah83 They are all looking pretty cool. 😎 happy that you got so lovely books and your trip back was good 8y
