The Wee Writing Lassie’s 300 Books in a Year – Book 111

Ancient Skies: Constellation Mythology of the Greeks by David Weston Marshall

Goodreads Blurb: Look to the sky and see the stories in the stars The stars and constellations are among the few remaining objects that appear to us just as they appeared to our distant ancestors. From anywhere on Earth, a person may view the celestial panorama simply by stepping outside at night and gazing upward. This non- fiction narrative presents the tales of the forty- eight classical constellations, compiled from literature spanning a thousand years from Homer (c. 800 BC) to Claudius Ptolemy (c. 150 AD).

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Goodreads Review: A fascinating delve into the skies of Ancient Greece, and stories and philosophies that abounded down from them. My favourite is the stories of the Big and Little Bear – which are slightly different than the myths I’d heard about them before 😁⭐️
