Here we find retold myths by the ancient Greeks, replete with amorous oddities and adventures. Discover divinities in all their fantastic eroticism, trickeries, and pursuits. Magic prevails, and transformations and wonders abound.Zeus shared an ecstatic three-hundred-year honeymoon with his sister/wife Hera and later tallied up 125 liaisons (both male and female). In addition, we come to know how Endymion and Selene celebrate moon madness, how Eros wounds himself and chases Psyche, how Dionysus and the Maenads go wild on wine, and many more mythical diversities and entertainments.

From the mundane to the extraordinary, The Little Book of Magical Creatures catalogs over two dozen animals, including dragons, centaurs, owls, and salamanders. Discover the legend and lore of magical creatures in this extraordinary bestiary.
Drawn from four main categories (fabulous, tame, wild, and magic storied), The Little Book of Magical Creatures contains some unexpected additions. For example, did you know that Greek myths associate the pig with purity and protection from evil spirits? Elizabeth Pepper and Barbara Stacy outline the origin of the animals, their mythological and magical significance, and their role in the popular imagination. Included are pictures and woodcuts of wild and fantastical creatures.

Still others never lived at all, springing instead from the power of human imagination. Magical Creatures collects their tales and tributes from earliest times to the present.
