Live Like A Goddess: Life Lessons from Legends and Lore

English

By (author): Jean Menzies

Illustrated by: Taylor Dolan

The perfect gift for teenagers and young women - a beautifully illustrated book of goddess life lessons, myths and legends.

For centuries, cultures around the world celebrated tales and myths of daring and brave goddesses. These twenty-one legendary ladies were tenacious, smart and strong. Meet...

· Osun, the Yoruba goddess of love who stands up to those who believe women are less important than men

· Rhiannon, the Welsh queen of fairies who won't let anyone make decisions for her and instead follows her heart

· Freyja, the Norse goddess of love and death who sets boundaries and is comfortable with being a single independent woman

These rich and often forgotten female stories of the ancient past will inspire you to be just as confident, courageous, fierce and fearless in the future.

'With an ancient, earnest heart, Live like a Goddess continues a venerable tradition of reading myth not just for fun but for personal enrichment. I am warmed by these diverse tales and their lessons in ambition, wisdom and courage' - Amy Jeffs, author of the bestselling Storyland

Menzies presents gem-like stories of powerful women, lifting them up to guide future generations. A gorgeous reclamation of our human heritage. Luna McNamara, author of Psyche and Eros
