God's Paintbrush by Sandy Eisenberg Sasso 211 SAS
This book was interesting, however the person didn't know much about God. It was written from the viewpoint of a very young child so that could be why. The illustrations were good.

The Olympians by Leonard Everett Fisher 292 FIS

Gilgamesh by Bernada Bryson
299 Bry 5106

Gilgamesh - always heard about him, now I know and he is sure older than the Greek and Roman "gods."
The basic story is classic and very familiar. The illustrations are based on real artifacts and are amazing!! The author's biography is amazing, guess it is just in all of us to be interested in this stuff!!!!

Snake Hair by Stephanie Spinner 292 Spi

This book talks about this one woman named Medusa. She said that she was a priestess and the Gods came and made her a monster. The king sent his best warrior to kill Medusa and the gods gave him a gold shield and flying shoes. He used his shield to cover Medusa's face and chopped her head. I think this book was weird.

200 is my least favorite section of the library. I do like myths, but theat is about all in that category.

The Wayn to Start a Day by Byrd Bayor 291.2 Bay is the book I read. The books tells about customs all over the world that people do early every morning. My ritual of sitting on my front porch while drinking coffee and watching the llamas was not in the book. It is a great way to start the day!
