World Myths and Legends by Kathy Ceceri Book PDF Summary

All societies have their own myths and legends, but they're much more than just stories.

From the Greek myths to ancient epics like Gilgamesh and the trickster tales of Anansi the Spider, it helps readers think about why the same themes, characters, and events may show up in different parts of the globe. Along the way kids will also find lots of fun and interesting projects that let them experience the stories first-hand.
