Ludicrous Legends: Myths Meet Mayhem (ludicrous Legends, #2)
In Ludicrous Legends: Myths Meet Mayhem by Jol Temple, Greek mythology gets a wacky junior fiction makeover that’s just right for readers who like their legends loud, silly and fast-paced.
When Hector’s three-headed dog eats his homework (again), he ropes in his centaur best mate, Hylo, to help him muddle through. Soon the pair are tangled up in a very loose retelling of three classic myths: Icarus’s dad has gone into the airline business, Pandora wants a refund on her disastrous box purchase, and King Midas has a golden problem that’s more awkward than awesome. It’s all playful chaos, with plenty of jokes and bite-sized myth facts woven in.
Perfect for 7–10 year olds, reluctant readers, and fans of funny chapter books, classroom-friendly adventures and myth retellings.
Pop it in the trolley and let the mayhem begin.
