Beowulf

The Hero Beowulf <> by Eric A. Kimmel

My review rating: 4 of 5 stars
This was a nice book to expose my children to the epic poem "Beowulf." They liked the pictures and came away understanding one of Beowulf's adventures. We followed the book up with a 30 min video from the library entitled "Beowulf" by Schlessinger Media. The video recounts all three of Beowulf's adventures.

If your children enjoyed the story of BEOWULF they might also enjoy "Kid Beowulf" a graphic novel series about the adventures of twin brothers Beowulf and Grendel! www.kidbeowulf.com

I've heard of these stories, but have never read any. What age would be appropriate and what are they about?
