Arachne's Strange Tales

Arachne is good at weaving-so good, in fact, that jealous goddess Athena decides to teach her a lesson! The five twisted tales in this book show what happens when mortal creatures cross paths with the gods ... and come away entirely changed.ABOUT THE SERIES: Greek Myths and Legends Retold for Children brings the timeless tales of the Greek pantheon to life for a younger generation through cleverly reworked text and playful line illustrations. Told with wit and panache, Claudia Martin's storytelling retains the humour and charm of the original tales while simplifying and clarifying the language and plots to make them accessible to children.
