Horowitz, Anthony.
Tricks and transformations / Anthony Horowitz. - London : Macmillan children's book, 2012. - 114 p. : 19 cm.
Don't mess with the gods. And if they mess with you? Run like hell ... Myths and legends are full of stories of the transformation of humans and animals into other things through the magical intervention of the Gods. From better-known characters like Actaeon, the famous Greek huntsman who was doomed to become a stag forever chased by his own dogs, and Glaucus, the fisherman who became a fish himself, only to fall hopelessly in love with a naiad, to the Japanese tale of the Goddess Amaterasu, who created the first eclipse when she hid herself in a cave and more, this collection proves that all is never what it seems when it comes to the affairs of the Gods.
