Mythology for Teens: Classic Myths in Today’s World
takes classical mythology to a new level by relating ancient stories to the culture, history, art, and literature of today. By looking at topics instrumental to both mythology and modern culture, teens are encouraged to question topics such as the repercussions of war, vanity and greed, the workings of fate, the nature of love, the roles of women in society, revenge and forgiveness, the meaning of life, and national identity.
The majority of high school humanities and Advanced Placement courses teach classical mythology by simply retelling myths. By using teen-friendly reader’s theater scripts to tell the legends, in combination with activities, discussion questions, and exercises that help students apply what they’ve learned to real life,
Mythology for Teens
takes the classic myths taught in school and turns them into an engaging, interesting, and fresh way of looking at old material.

Mythology for Teens: Classic Myths in Today's World
by Zachary Hamby takes dusty, classic myths and turns them into engaging reading for students at the middle school or high school level . . . Each chapter has discussion questions to go along with the reading, writing prompts, drawing prompts and even suggested movies to watch. In addition to the plays for reader's theater, there is a wealth of knowledge about the myths arranged in boxes and short readings . . . Try
Mythology for Teens
to create engaging and applicable mythology lessons for students. Hamby "gets" teenagers and how they comprehend literature. The book is a worthwhile investment that will not collect dust on the shelves.
