Fairy Tales, Myths and LegendsΒ 

For as long as people have been on this earth to say them, stories have been told. Whether they were stories of knights battling dragons, the search for the fountain of youth or gods fighting each other, our fascination has continued to grow. There are a phenomenal amount of fairy tales, myths and legends throughout the world, meaning that there is always something new to read about them. Here at Book2Door, we have highlighted some of our favourites that we think you will enjoy. Now sit back, relax and dive into some fantastical other worlds and cultures with our fairy tales, myths and legends collection.Β 

Classic Fairy TalesΒ 

There are many different fairy tales that have been past down to us since we were young children. Many of these classic stories originated from Hans Christian Anderson and The Brothers Grimm, Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm. These pioneers of modern storytelling paved the way for a vast amount of writers, artists and musicians. If you would like to check out the original dark warning tales by these classic authors, check out Grimm's Complete Fairy Tales by The Brothers Grimm and Hans Andersen's Fairy Tales: Retold by Naomi Lewis.Β 

If you are looking for lighter retellings of classic fairy tales, check out Ladybird Tales My Once Upon A Time Library 24 Books Collection. This wonderful collection contains classic tales like Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella, Puss in Boots, and so many more. Many children have grown up seeing these stories on the big screen. However, it is always an enjoyable activity for you to read the stories with them. Perfect for bedtime stories, this book collection also makes a great gift.Β 

Mythology booksΒ 

There are so many different mythologies out there it can be hard to know where to start! Here at Books2Door, we have a great selection of mythologies from across the globe for you to look through. Starting with the UK is Arthurian Mythology. The main story originates from Welsh mythology about a great warrior defending Britain from human and supernatural enemies. This then turned to the story of the legendary king of Britain, King Arthur. Sweet Cherry Publishing has released an easy classics series called The Legend of King Arthur, perfect for introducing your 7-9-year-old to mythology.Β 

Turning to our Scandinavian neighbours for our next exploration of different cultures' mythology. Norse mythology features some of the craziest and creepiest stories, creatures and lands. Many Hollywood films have taken inspiration from Nordic mythology, including, Midsommar, The Ritual and The Northman. Not to mention the comic book retelling of the Gods Thor and Loki in Marvel. Once you dive into Norse mythology, it is easy to see why so many writers have taken inspiration from it. For a great retelling of Norse Mythology, focusing on Ragnarok and the antics of Loki, the God of Mischief, check out Neil Gaiman’s Norse Mythology. For a beautiful collection of illustrated Norse myths and legends, check out Norse Myths by Matt Ralphs.Β 

Another famous collection of mythology is Egyptian. Originating from Ancient Egypt, these stories describe the actions of Gods, the order of the Universe (Maat) and various frightening creatures. Ancient Egyptian mythology largely influenced modern-day Egyptian culture, with scenes and symbols from myth appearing in art in tombs, temples, and amulets. For a fantastic illustrated guide to Egyptian mythology, check out Treasury Of Egyptian Mythology: Classic Stories of Gods, Goddesses, Monsters & Mortals By Donna Jo Napoli. For a factual but child-friendly resource, check out Stars of Mythology: Egyptian by Hachette publishing. This is part of a series, so don’t forget to check out Stars of Mythology: Greek.Β
