A-Maze-ing Minotaur Zusammenfassung

A-Maze-ing Minotaur Juliet Rix

King Minos keeps a strange and dangerous beast in the maze of narrow corridors beneath his castle, known as the Labyrinth. This is the dreaded Minotaur who, every nine years is fed a horrible meal of seven young men and seven young girls from Athens, sent down to the Labyrinth to their deaths. Once inside the Labyrinth no one is ever able to find their way out...
Theseus, prince of Athens, vows to kill the Minotaur, and he willingly sails to Crete with the other young Athenians destined to sate the beast' s horrible hunger. Helped by the king' s daughter, Ariadne, who has fallen in love with him, Theseus enters the Labyrinth, armed with his sword and a ball of golden thread. " Unravel it as you go into the maze and you will be able to find your way out" Ariadne tells the young man.
Will Theseus kill the Minotaur? Will he be able to get out of the maze? Follow Theseus on his quest, through the Labyrinth, and see if YOU can spot where the Minotaur is lurking, and if you can follow the thread and help Theseus escape?

A-Maze-ing Minotaur Bewertungen

"This is a nice accessible book for introducing Greek Myths to younger children, but would also support less able readers as a topic resource for Ancient Greece curriculum projects."

"Young audiences will particularly enjoy spotting the monster's whereabouts as they turn the pages taking Theseus closer and closer to the deadly creature."

"The myth of Theseus and the Minotaur is engagingly retold with illustrations that are inspired by Minoan art."
