Legendary Ladies: 50 Goddesses to Empower and Inspire You

I kind of assume all “# Females by Theme” books are going to be kid friendly girl power reads. This one... maybe wait a few extra years. Mythology is full of unpleasant things and even boiled down to a couple paragraphs per goddess, there's still some rape and castration scattered through the book.

The art is gorgeous and this book is a good starting point for an interest in mythology, but without enough on anyone to really be satisfying.
