“Herakles, the Hero of Thebes, and Other Heroes of the Myth” is a book of ancient Greek myth arranged for children by the British writers Mary E. Burt and Zénaïde A. Ragozin. The idea of the book came during Burt's visit to Greece, where she was able to visit some schools and see the enthusiastic interest of children reading these myths. She brought a copy of the book to Britain and translated it with the help of Zénaïde A. Ragozin.
