Virtually every culture on earth has wondered about how the world began and where we humans come from, resulting in creation myths from the Titans and Olympians of ancient Greece to the Dreamtime of the Aboriginal peoples. With expressive watercolor illustrations throughout, this book lets readers and listeners of all ages compare these varied and wonderful stories, including Marduk and the Tablets of Destiny (Babylon), the Five Aztec Worlds, Obatala and the Hen (Yoruba), and Pan Gu emerging from a cosmic egg (China).
