We're finally into our studies of Ancient Greece and the boys are so excited! We've only been at it for a week and already I've finished the first three books in Mary Pope Osborne's Tales from the Odyssey series. Once I start reading the boys just won't let me stop! :-) I wish our library carried all six of the series, but unfortunately they only have these three.
Books We Read:
Pegasus by Jane Yolen
The Librarian Who Measured the Earth by Kathryn Lasky
The Children's Homer by Padraic Colum
Tales from the Odyssey #1: The One-Eyed Giant by Mary Pope Osborne
Tales from the Odyssey #2: The Land of the Dead by Mary Pope Osborne
Tales from the Odyssey #3: Sirens and Sea Monsters by Mary Pope Osborne
