Description Jason and the Golden Fleece is the second book in the Early Myths collection, a series of children's picture books on Greek myth.
Each book covers a character from mythology and brings the tale to life through illustrations and story-telling, with inspiration from ancient art and literature.
The books are aimed at 4 to 10 year olds, are beautifully designed and easy to read.
The myth of Jason tells one of the oldest stories from Greek mythology.
Jason tries to win back the throne, stolen from his father, but is challenged to a dangerous adventure to prove his skills.
He gathers the greatest of the heroes, constructs a ship called the Argo and sails to the edges of the known world to attempt to win the fabled Fleece.
Along the way he takes on the winged Harpies, fire-breathing bulls and a dangerous serpent.
Can he win the heart of the local princess and reclaim the throne for his family back in Greece? For teachers and parents, we have a notes section at the back, describing how our illustrations have been inspired by ancient Greek vase-painting, sculptures, and early literature.
The kids don't need to know this aspect to enjoy the tale, but the grown-ups can learn about how we have taken time and care to construct our book, using the early historical sources, rather than simply repeat a generic version of the myth.
