Young Zeus
So I saw this in the library and had to find out how in the world someone managed to turn the story of young Zeus into a picture book appropriate for young children. The author omitted the most gruesome bits, but managed to keep quite a few others in with some sugar coating. For example Cronus uses a sickle to banish his father Uranus to the bottom of the sea, but Karas doesn't specify for the reader exactly how he did that. No one actually dies in this book, they just get "banished to the bottom of the sea". I was highly amused by the bickering of the gods once they are freed. I was also amused how the epic battle for dominion over the earth reads like a school yard play session. Overall a successful rendering of a horrific myth into a delightfully fun tale for children. :)
