rings together the tales of thirteen inspirational female characters from ancient myths and legends.

Told afresh for a contemporary readership,
Goddesses & Heroines brings alive stories from a variety of cultures. We meet the youthful Aphrodite; Hecate, the maths whizz; the heroic Mulan; Oshun, the Nigerian goddess whose foresight sparked a rebellion that freed slaves; and the not-so-fair-y godmother Baba Yaga, whose bone-crunching approach to life will be an inspiration to any power-hungry young thing.

With information on how goddesses and heroines achieved their mythic status, how myths are passed on and evolve, and a map of goddesses from around the globe and how they are inter-connected. With words by Xanthe Gresham-Knight and stunning illustrations by Alice Pattullo, this wonderful book is a great gift for older children and teenagers.
