Roman Myths 292.13 WES

The Romans based their beliefs on those of the Greeks, but they changed their names. I like Greek mythology a lot better, but this is a good graphic novel.

King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba
by Blu Greenberg and Linda Tarry
220.9
I think this book should on the fiction side. The women who wrote it admit they made up the part about King Solomon marrying Sheba. Another thing they got wrong is Solomon did not grow up with wisdom, he got his wisdom from God after he became King. It's a cute fiction story but that's all.

Mars was the Roman god if war. The Greeks called him Ares. Mars had a sister named Discord. She liked to cause trouble and play tricks on other gods. During the Trojan war Mars made the army very strong. Ancient Greeks and Romans named many things after Mars. Like Mars the fourth planet from the sun.
