Young readers will delight in the mighty goddesses and courageous heroines that star in these epic myths, reinterpreted by master storyteller Claudia Martin and award-winning children's illustrator Khoa Le. Follow the adventures of spirited Sedna, who protects the animals of the ocean, selfless Tanis who saved her villiage from a terrible monster and brave Japlo who outwitted a water spirit.
