This is Greece / Miroslav Sasek

The charming illustrations combined with Sasek’s playful narration make perfect souvenirs that will delight both children and parents. This is Greece captures the flavour and traditions of the birthplace of Western civilisation. There’s Athens, with its spectacular Acropolis, Parthenon, temples, theatres and marketplaces; architecturally charming Corinth; Mycenae, inhabited since 3000 BC; Olympia, home of the gods; Delphi, famous for its legendary oracle; and the beautiful islands. There is also modern Greece, where life is lived on street corners, in squares and at tables amid memories of the past.
