The deeds and the endlessly intertwining stories of the divinities venerated by the Ancient Greeks will arouse childrens curiosity while making them eager to discover more and more about the gods and to take part in their actions. The evocative drawings combined with the richness of clothing and drapery that Manuela Adreani is able to suggest will let their dreams take flight.
