About Tanglewood Tales by Nathaniel Hawthorne

Tanglewood Tales is a book by American author Nathaniel Hawthorne, a sequel to A Wonder-Book for Girls and Boys. It is a re-writing of well-known Greek myths in a volume for children. Hawthorne wrote these stories for children based on Greek myth and legend. They are incomparable retellings of themes which the Greek dramatists used in creating their immortal plays and literature. Contents: The Gorgon's Head; The Golden Touch; The Paradise of Children; The Three Golden Apples; The Miraculous Pitcher; The Chimaera; The Wayside; The Minotaur; The Pygmies; The Dragon's Teeth; Circe's Palace; The Pomegranate Seeds; and The Golden Fleece. This is a delightful edition of Hawthorne's Greek mythology for young readers. Hawthorne is such a sneakily good re-teller of old myths and legends that it really is quite enjoyable. Kids and adults will both find a lot of delight in this collection, it can read straight through as a novel because of the thread that Hawthorne weaves.
