Description
First book in a series of short stories of myths and legends from around the world, each story accompanied by a beautiful illustration, for children 7 - 11 years old.
Step into a world where the impossible becomes real. Where tricksters walk among humans, ancient forests whisper secrets, and the ocean hides mysteries beneath its waves. Here, myths aren’t just old stories—they’re living adventures.
Follow young heroes as they step into the world of legends. Journey deep into an African forest, where a young girl discovers the tiny but powerful Aziza and must fight to save their home. Dive into the cold northern seas, where a boy begins to unravel the truth about his friend’s past and the Selkies lurking beneath the waves. Walk the bustling streets of ancient Egypt, where an ordinary pet cat may be more than she seems under the watchful eye of the goddess Bast.
From the towering pyramids of Egypt to the misty hills of Ireland, from the icy lands of the north to the vast deserts of Africa, these stories bring myths from all over the world to life. Each tale is filled with danger, excitement, and incredible discoveries.
With every turn of the page, you’ll meet legendary creatures, daring heroes, and powerful gods from cultures all around the world. Each story will transport you to a place where magic is real, mystery awaits, and the past is filled with wonders.
