This is a children’s book called Girl, Goddess, Queen by Bea Fitzgerald. It is a retelling of the Greek myth of Persephone and Hades, but with a feminist twist. In this version, Persephone is a strong-willed and independent young woman who does not want to be married off to Hades. She runs away to the Underworld to escape her arranged marriage, and there she finds that she is not as afraid of Hades as she thought she would be. They eventually fall in love, but their relationship is not without its challenges.
The book has been praised for its humor, its romance, and its empowering message for young girls. It has been called a “refreshing romp through Greek mythology” and a “feminist retelling that will make you rethink everything you thought you knew about Persephone and Hades.”
If you are looking for a fun and engaging book that will teach your child about Greek mythology and female empowerment, then Girl, Goddess, Queen is a great choice.
