The Story of Leo the Lion

Stories in the Stars

The constellation called Leo looks like a lion, and many people recall the story of the Nemean Lion from Greek mythology when they see it. The Nemean Lion was a man-eating beast that no weapon could harm. Only one man could discover a way to kill it: the hero Hercules. This accessible, entertaining volume tells the story of Hercules and his battle with the infamous lion as well as instructs readers about when they can see Leo for themselves in the night sky.
