Greek mythology as a puzzle quest

Greek myths become hands-on challenges in this collection, pairing a retelling on each spread with an illustrated puzzle. Mazes, codes, and riddles bring readers into stories including Persephone’s journey from the underworld, Jason and the Argonauts’ search for the golden fleece, and Perseus’s encounter with Medusa. The puzzles give familiar myths a participatory format, while the range of stories offers an introduction to figures and episodes from ancient Greek mythology. Catherine Ard retells the tales, with illustrations and puzzles by Maria Surducan; the book is also presented as the first in a planned series spanning myths from other cultures.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Puzzle lovers who enjoy mazes, codes, and riddles
  • Children exploring Greek mythology for the first time
  • Young readers who already know the classic myths and want an interactive format
