    About this ebook

    This Child’s Outline of Greek and Roman Mythology is included in our Continuing Education Series to provide a useful study guide for children or for anyone who may be reading Greek or Roman mythology for the first time. The outline collapses the complex group of mythological characters and interactions into a quick blow-by-blow of the main characters and interactions found in the myths. Written in a fairly simple and comprehensive way, the piece can serve to give a helping hand to young readers and/or those who have absolutely no familiarity with the basic characters and stories of Greek or Roman mythology.
