Dive into Greek mythology and learn how Medusa became the snake-haired monster she is in this exciting new picture book in the Little Myths series. Most people know Medusa for the halo of snakes that sit on her head and her ability to turn anyone who looks at her into stone. But once upon a time, Medusa was just a little girl. Sure, she was a powerful gorgon, but in lots of other ways she was just like you. She fought with her sisters, but all she really wanted was friendship, love, and to feel like she fit in.

A humorous and informative "biography" of the famous snake-haired monster from Greek mythology, Medusa's origin story comes to life for little myth lovers in vibrant illustrations and comic-like panels, perfect for young and emerging readers.

Book Description
Medusa, the Gorgon, who turns those who gaze upon her to stone, is one of the most popular and enduring figures of Greek mythology. Long after many other figures from Greek myth have been forgotten, she continues to live in popular culture. In this fascinating study of the legend of Medusa, Stephen R. Wilk begins by refamiliarizing readers with the story through ancient authors and classical artwork, then looks at the interpretations that have been given of the meaning of the myth through the years. A new and original interpretation of the myth is offered, based upon astronomical phenomena. The use of the gorgoneion, the Face of the Gorgon, on shields and on roofing tiles is examined in light of parallels from around the world, and a unique interpretation of the reality behind the gorgoneion is suggested. Finally, the history of the Gorgon since tlassical times is explored, culminating in the modern use of Medusa as a symbol of Female Rage and Female Creativity.

No longer a virgin, Medusa now faces banishment from the temple and Athena’s legendary wrath. Perseus’s love for Medusa breeds poison when kept a secret from all who live on Mt. Olympus. To have a life together, the couple must air the truth, even if it shakes the foundation of the Parthenon.

The collision of their destinies forces them into a world that neither imagined.
