Media Reviews
A handy reference book for teachers and older students of literature and art, as well as a useful introduction to a serious study of mythology itself. * Times Educational Supplement *
Endlessly fascinating. * Sunday Express *
Full of fascinating information and illustrations, the book's designers have eschewed eye-catching headings and page layouts. * Achuka *
Mythologies of the World would make an excellent classroom resource or reference book. * Junior Education *
This book represents enormous value and richly deserves a place on the library shelf. * The School Librarian *
