Echo echo : reverso poems about Greek myths  Cover Image Book Book

Echo echo : reverso poems about Greek myths / Marilyn Singer ; illustrated by Josée Masse.

Singer, Marilyn, (author.). Masse, Josée, (illustrator.).

Summary:

"What happens when you hold up a mirror to poems about Greek myths? You get a brand-new perspective on the classics! And that is just what happens in Echo Echo, the newest collection of reverso poems from Marilyn Singer. Read one way, each poem tells the story of a familiar myth; but when read in reverse, the poems reveal a new point of view! Readers will delight in uncovering the dual points of view in well-known legends, including the stories of Pandora's box, King Midas and his golden touch, Perseus and Medusa, Pygmalion, Icarus and Daedalus, Demeter and Persephone, and Echo and Narcissus. These cunning verses combine with beautiful illustrations to create a collection of fourteen reverso poems to treasure."-- Provided by publisher
