Title: A Gift With a Long Shadow
Review: The D'Aulaires' story telling is excellent for growing young readers. I read this to my daughter from the time she was born. She took over from there and a battered, colored copy is still somewhere in the house. Knowledge of these myths is essential for an understanding of western culture. Edith Hamilton tells them better, but not for the very young.I give a copy of this book to every new father to read to his child. I can imagine no better gift.
