Try Hermo freeA story set where you are headed can turn the journey into part of the trip. For Greece, that means children's books by authors and illustrators from Greece, starting with Greek Mythology: The Gods of Olympus by Menelaos Stephanides. Below are three books worth packing, each available in English with links to find them at Bookshop.org or Amazon.
A local retelling of the twelve Olympian gods, first in an eight-volume Greek-authored series.
A clever Greek-authored fairy-tale reversal in which three sweet wolves are menaced by a big bad pig.
Not by Greek authors, but one of the best family introductions to Greek mythology.
