Most people know Medusa as the monster with a halo of snakes that sit on her head. But once upon a time, Medusa was just a little girl. Sure, she was the daughter of powerful sea monsters, but in lots of other ways she was just like you. She squabbled with her sisters but all she really wanted was friendship, love and to fit in. But she grew up, people were mean to her and she grew angry, vengeful and dangerous. This is her story.
Packed with facts from the Greek mythology and graphic art panels, Little Myths is the perfect series for mythology-mad kids.
Emma Adams grew up spending lots of her time in her local library, reading Roald Dahl books and imagining she was Matilda. Her love of reading turned into a love of publishing when she went to Loughborough University to study Publishing with English, and when Emma later started working on books for children it felt like the most natural thing in the world. Emma lives in Hackney, London.
