Our Review Panel says...

This highly appealing text is a hybrid between picture book and graphic novel. It follows the story of young Leo, who finds himself on an Ancient Greek quest to slay a beast. This modern twist on the myth of Perseus and Medusa is full of all of the delights expected of Greek mythology – monsters, heroes, quests and challenges – while emphasising a new set of values around what it means to be a hero.
