Draft:World Mythologies series

The World Mythologies series was a book series published by Schocken Books. The series consists of 13 books, each dedicated to a mythology of the world. Several titles have been recommended on reading lists for children and teens, homeschooling parents, and English-language learners, citing "very accessible retellings" and "beautiful illustrations". The volumes usually included maps, an appendix of source material, explanations of symbols included in black-and-white chapter title page illustrations, "lavish" full-color illustrations, and cast a wide net both geographically and thematically, such as including tales of emperors and pharoahs among the myths of Rome and Egypt.
