The Adventures of Ulysses is by Bernard Evslin. An edited retelling of Homer's Odyssey in modern English. Most of the adventures are covered and this is a wonderful introduction to the "real thing" since having some background will enhance the understanding of Homer's original work. Better than Cliff Notes! Of course, nothing beats Homer's original. Still a great entry into mythology.
Ratings: 7th grade - 8 out of 10.
