Synopsis "Sky Cloud City: (a fun adventure inspired by Greek mythology and an ancient Greek play -"The Birds"- by Aristophanes) (in English)"
An award-winning chapter book inspired by an ancient Greek comedy (The Birds, Ornithes) by Aristophanes.When two young friends purchase a pair of talking birds, an adventure set in ancient Greece begins! The two friends -Hope and Trusty- embark on a journey to the Land of the Birds, accompanied by two caged crows and a couple of stray dogs. There they meet a colorful king and address a hostile assembly of birds. With skill, eloquence and courage, the two friends end up uniting the birds in a common goal: to erect a huge city high up in the clouds. The founding of this city shakes up humankind and humbles Zeus and the Olympian gods. It triggers a series of events that benefit the birds and improves their status in the world.Written by a Greek archaeologist, this fun retelling of a popular ancient Greek play is an ode to friendship and to promises kept. It highlights the benefits of brotherhood, unity, democracy and peace. The story sends out a very positive message to young readers: never hesitate to dream big. Seemingly impossible goals CAN be reached with hard work and collaboration. The skillful artwork by accomplished Greek artist, Natalia Kapatsoulia, brings the story to life, rendering the book appealing to kids and parents alike.Sky Cloud City is a short chapter book for ages 7+, grades 2-4 and for the young at heart...An absolute must-have for the kids who LOVE Greek mythology.2021 Moonbeam Children's Book Awards, Early Reader-First Chapter Books: Bronze Medal.
