Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Ten treasured stories from the myths and legends of ancient Phoenicia, gathered into one richly illustrated volume for young readers ages 5 to 9.Meet Cadmus, who follows a wandering cow across the sea in search of his missing sister. Sail with Dido, the clever princess who outsmarts a king using nothing but a single ox hide. Discover why a mountain river turns red every spring in the story of Adonis, and cheer for Melqart as he faces his bravest trial yet. Listen as El, the oldest of all the gods, tells of the very first days of the world, and watch Astarte light the evening sky with her gentle star.Wander into the cedar forests of Lebanon to meet their ancient guardian, uncover the secret behind the enormous stones of Baalbek, follow an explorer into the hidden river caves of Jeita, and learn how the healer Eshmun earned his place among the gods.Each of these ten tales is grounded in real Phoenician and Lebanese mythology, gently retold and illustrated for young readers, while staying true to where these stories came from. Full of courage, cleverness, and wonder, this treasury brings the oldest stories of the eastern Mediterranean to a new generation, perfect for story time, gift giving, and young explorers of world mythology.
