Greek Myths – Stories of Sun, Stone and Sea by Sally Pomme Clayton and Jane Ray. Frances Lincoln 2014 edition<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

I am very proud that the book is part of The Reading Agency’s<\/a> summer reading challenge which has the theme of myths this year.  Children can win a copy Greek Myths<\/strong><\/em>,<\/a> along with two more of Frances Lincoln’s fairytale collections, by drawing a scene from their favourite myth or fairytale.  Follow this link , for all the details<\/a>. Then get out your crayons and pens. I would like to see: the prince hacking his way through Sleeping Beauty’s forest of thorns; Russian witch Babayaga riding on her pestle and mortar; or maybe you could choose one from my book – Pegasus flying higher and higher until he turns into a constellation of stars. I hope I might even get to see what stories children do draw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are an adult you can still do some drawing – and buy the book here!<\/a> I will be performing stories for children from the book in the coming months and will keep you informed.<\/p>\n
