A charming nighttime scene of a village at Christmas — shown on the inside covers of this book — is waiting to be brought to life with festive ornaments and Yuletide revelers. Youngsters can add 24 numbered, full-color sticker images of carolers, snowmen, houses, a church, Christmas tree, and more!

Addressed to students of classical mythology, religion, and comparative mythology, this volume contains myths of creation from three ancient cultures. Included are selections from the Hebrew Bible, the Mesopotamian Enuma Elish and Atrahasis, and Hesiod's Theogony and Works and Days. The texts are complemented by essays on the cultural contexts in which the myths arose.
