<p>D wills study mythology soon - Ancient Greek Theater, Aeschylus, Aristophanes, Aristotle, Euripides, Sophocles. They’ll be reading translations. It looks like there aren’t helpful guide-style books on these, just intros and notes within texts, but I thought I’d ask if anyone has a favorite entry into these types of works.</p>

<p>(Bought the No Fear Shakespeare books for this kid during the HS Shakespeare years, where a common language version sits aside the original text. These were very helpful and did not prevent her from reading the actual Shakespeare.)</p>
