Wings of Icarus: A Bloomsbury Reader: Brown Book Band

English

By (author): Jenny Oldfield

Illustrated by: Bee Willey

Book Band: Brown, ideal for ages 7+ A gripping retelling of the classic Greek myth by bestselling author Jenny Oldfield. Daedalus can see how much his impulsive, restless son Icarus longs to escape their island prison. When his cunning plan to get them across the sea fails, Daedalus comes up with an even more dangerous invention: wings to take them to the skies. This accessible retelling of the renowned Greek myth has appealing black-and-white illustrations by Bee Willey and is perfect for children who are developing as readers.
