ZEUS AND HIS OLYMPIANS (Jul, 2008)

Product Code CAL0807

Always wanted the inside scoop on mighty Zeus' adventures - and misadventures? Well, here it is! CALLIOPE has a special pass for you to Mount Olympos - a ringside seat at the table of all the powerful deities who ruled the Greek and Roman world. We'll watch and marvel at how Zeus outwits his father and then his relatives to gain the highest seat on Mt. Olympos. Then, we'll be off on a journey around the Mediterranean world to watch Zeus' children in action. And, what action it is with Daphne trying to escape the clutches of Apollo and Endymion unable to wake because of Artemis' spell. But, there's more as CALLIOPE tells you of the adventures of Zeus' best-known grandchild, little Cupid, who in this issue will pierce his own heart with his fateful love arrows. To be sure, this "divine" issue will make perfect summer reading - and you just might keep it close the rest of the year as well!
