Description
Theseus is bold. He's brave. And he's about to go head-to-head with a mythological monster. Yikes! But Theseus has no fear. He heads into the labyrinth to face the minotaur - a monster that's half-man, half-bull - with only a magical ball of string to guide him. Find out if Theseus makes it out of the maze alive in this modern, graphic retelling of a classic Greek myth, featuring text particularly appropriate for struggling and reluctant readers.
