Atalanta Book Reviews
Atalanta by Dr. Simon Spence Book Summary
**Winner of silver medal at the Moonbeam Children's Book Awards**
Atalanta is the fourth book in the Early Myths collection, a series of children's picture books on Greek myth. Each book covers a character from mythology and brings the tale to life through illustrations and story-telling, with inspiration from ancient art and literature. The books are aimed at 4 to 10 year olds, are beautifully designed and easy to read.
Atalanta is the story of a young girl who does not want to be married off to a local prince, and instead heads off into the forest to live with the animals. She learns to hunt, run, and take on all that nature throws at her, becoming one of the best of the heroes. She takes on the strongest of the men- and wins! When she does agree to find a partner she challenges the other heroes to be her equal and meets a person who respects her skills and ability. But can he convince her that he is her true love?
For teachers and parents, we have a notes section at the back, describing how our illustrations have been inspired by ancient Greek vase-painting, sculptures, and early literature. The kids don’t need to know this aspect to enjoy the tale, but the grown-ups can learn about how we have taken time and care to construct our book, using the early historical sources, rather than simply repeat a generic version of the myth.

Innovative and educational. Good for young kids 5-8ish- accessible way to learn about myths. Sounds are nice touch, and notes at back interesting.
Strong role model!. Strong and fearless woman. Good role model for young girls growing up today. But also good story for all kids between say 5-10.
Vibrant images. The tale is good but the images are amazing. Interesting use of ancient historical artwork to bring this old myth to life. Well done.
