About this listen

 In The Olympic Family, Harmonia--goddess of harmony, and the daughter of Ares and Aphrodite--shares stories from her divine relatives: the jealous, the heroic, the foolish, and the wise. These are the original dysfunctional family dramas, with thunderbolts, monsters, epic quests... and consequences. Told with warmth, wit, and just a touch of ambrosial judgment, each episode introduces a character or moment from Greek mythology in a way that makes sense for curious middle-schoolers and their grownups alike. Because once you know the gods, history makes a lot more sense.copyright Red Buoy Media 2025 Literature & Fiction
