I currently teach several other Mythology classes on Outschool. I previously taught a mythology class to high schoolers using this book in a homeschool co-op setting. I have also taught my children Mythology as part of our homeschool curriculum. I read and studied Mythology in high school and college. I became an adult who continued to immerse myself in the mythologies of various cultures. All topics related to violence or sexual content will be handled carefully and appropriately. Students will be given ample time to express their thoughts and feelings about these stories. Parents can also read through the book with their children.
