Finished THE BOOK OF BEGINNINGS in the Enchanted World series.

Of course none of the books in this series claims or even tries to be complete.  They are a collection of myths from all over the world:  this one exploring how the Earth, Sun, Moon, and stars came to be, where people, animals, and plants come from and how they got their individual characteristics.  The fanciful telling of the stories coupled with lovely and colorful illustrations made this book a joy to read.

Now, to replace the last book I read in the series, I am reading Giants and Ogres as my bathroom book.  I look forward to more fascinating tales.
