Two Tales of Twins from Ancient Greece and Rome

Temporarily out of stock

Twin baby gods with extraordinary powers at birth; twin boys brought up by a wolf, brothers whose quarrel will one day make the greatest city in the world: from the pen of multi-award winning author Ursula Dubosarsky comes this fresh and lively retelling of two great myths from Ancient Greece and Rome, re-imagined for young readers, and illustrated in gorgeous classical style by David Allan.
