Theseus and the Minotaur

By Camilo Cañaveral Alzate, 2º ESO A

A mythology book for young readers. It includes three stories: Theseus and the Minotaur, Orpheus and Eurydice, Apollo and Daphne. They are Greek myths. The first one is about the adventures of Theseus in the island of the king Minos defeating the horrible creature, the Minotaur. The second narration is Orpheus and Eurydice´s travel to the underworld. The last one, Apollo and Daphne, is the more fictional story, telling how Apollo fell in love with the nymph Daphne.

It´s a simple introduction to Greek mythology. I recommend it to people who enjoy reading about ancient history. Sometimes the book gets interesting and you finish it without realizing! It´s quite a small book and it just has 47 pages.
