By navigating mazes and labyrinths, cracking codes, and solving riddles, they will guide Persephone out of the underworld so Spring can begin, join Jason and the Argonauts on their quest for the golden fleece, help Perseus avoid the terrifying gaze of the snake-­haired gorgon Medusa, and much more.

This innovative take on familiar and timeless tales is sure to engage and enthuse young minds. Its the perfect read for puzzle-­lovers, a brilliant introduction to mythology for newcomers, and offers a fresh new angle for kids who already love these classic stories.
