As a child, the myths of Greece, Hellas, it was my favorite book. It inspired me to draw. Most of my children's drawings were devoted to the events of those years. These were drawings about the siege of fortresses, the battle with mythical creatures, the Olympic Games of those times. Can modern literature compare, say with Aesop? How much humor and wisdom! You brought your son to the right place! The history of Rome is intermittent, but the mythology there has Greek roots.
