HarperTrophy, 2004

Luckily This isn't a Beast to Read! Romping Good Adventure, Mythical Style
This is my third experience with this author and with this series (Young Heroes), having thoroughly enjoyed Odysseus and the Serpent Maze & Hippoltya and the Curse of the Amazons, I had high hopes for Atalanta and the Arcadian Beast...I'm happy to report that I was not disappointed in the least. In this volume of the Young Heroes series, we are introduced to a young Atalanta who has seen much ...

Piggins4 reviews
Jane Yolen

Piccadilly Press Ltd, 1988

A good book to read aloud
This is a children's picture book written in the classic English Manor House Mystery style-- complete with a dinner party, distinguished guests, missing jewels and, of course, the butler, Piggins. I won't give away who "did it," but kids will have fun solving the mystery as you read the book to them. Part of the fun is looking at all the details in the drawings of the house. I highly ...
  
  











  



  
Odysseus in the Serpent Maze (Young Heroes)11 reviews
Jane Yolen, Robert J. Harris

HarperTrophy, 2002

High Spirited Adventure!
Such a wonderful introduction to Odysseus for young readers...this is a lively, fast paced, slightly outlandish accounting of the young Odysseus (and his cautious friend Mentor, the young and extremely spoiled Helen, and the practical and quite heroic on her own Penelope). I wasn't sure what to expect going into this, but I was glad to discover that it's not some campy over the top rendition of ...

Jason and the Gorgon's Blood (Young Heroes)2 reviews
Jane Yolen, Robert J. Harris

HarperCollins, 2004

Romping Good Fun!
This is my fourth read in the Young Heroes series by Yolen & Harris and while Odysseus and the Serpent Maze is still my favorite, Jason and the Gorgon's Blood comes in a close second and all are good, entertaining reads...glimpses into what might have been in the young lives of the famous heroes of Greek mythology. It is humor that makes the difference in which I find more entertaining...each ...
  
  











  



  
Color Me a Rhyme: Nature Poems for Young People2 reviews
J. Yolen

Topeka Bindery, 2003

Poems about Colors for teachers
I really like this book of poems. The pictures are lovely. Some poems have just a few lines and some poems are longer. The second language students and native English speaking students enjoy these poems.
