The Lady of Ten Thousand Names
Enjoy These Classic Goddess Tales
Jun-30-2009This book is a wonderful companion book to "Goddesses". "The Lady of Ten Thousand Names" has full tales of the goddesses, rather than the short entries of "Goddesses". Eight tales, gently told and illustrated, begin with a short overview of the featured goddess wreathed in the plants that grace each page of her story.
Goddesses
One of My Very Favorite Barefoot Books!
Jun-30-2009This beautifully illustrated book is like an encyclopedia of goddesses. It has a diverse selection of goddesses, well-known and not, from cultures around the world. Here you'll find goddesses from Aataentsic to The Zorya, with many in between. Each entry includes the goddess' name (and pronunciation), location, and some of her story. (There is also a list of the goddesses by country/culture/domain for quick reference.) A wonderful book that appeals to children and adults alike (many adults buy this title as a gift for friends or themselves). It is enthralling; refreshingly informative and utterly beautiful at the same time!
