Perseus and the Gorgon cover

The traditional Greek myth specially retold for children growing in reading confidence. Perseus is determined to rescue Andromeda, even though it means facing the hideous Gorgon, Medusa, whose glare turns warriors to stone… Perfect for children whose reading ability and confidence allows them to tackle longer and more complex stories. Developed in consultation with reading experts from Roehampton University.
