  • The Orchard Book of First Greek Myths is a bestselling children's book by Saviour Pirotta, illustrated by Jan Lewis. First published in hardback by Orchard Books, an imprint of Hachette Book Group in 2003, it has become a favourite with many schools and families exploring ancient Greek myths with children aged five to eight. It has been reprinted twelve times as of 2019 and spawned a series of stand-alone books with simplified text and more pictures. The book is part of a series of highly illustrated anthologies which also includes Geraldine McCaughrean's The Orchard Book of Greek Myths, Michael Morpurgo's Aesop's Fables and the author's own The Orchard Book of Grimm's Fairytales. The stories in both the anthology and the series include: * Odysseus and the wooden horse * Perseus and the monstrous Medusa * Arachne, the spider-woman * Pegasus, the flying horse * Arion, the dolphin boy * Jason and the Golden Fleece * King Midas's Goldfingers * Theseus and the Minotaur * The secret of Pandora's box * Icarus, the boy who could fly The book has very successful imprints in Brazil [Scipione] , Italy [Einaudi Ragazzi, an imprint of Arnoldo Mondadori Editore], Greece [Patakis] and Korea where the books are also available with an audio cd in both Korean and English. In Italy where the book is called Ai Piedi Dell' Olimpo [At the foot of Mount Olympus], there have been five different editions, one of which is included in a collection of classics called Lo Scaffale D'Oro [the golden bookcase] and was sold at a special price with the Italian newspaper, Corriere Della Sera. As from September 2015, the books will be available in cross-platform ebook editions. (en)
