A book accessible to children who hate words!

When I first received it, I was amazed.
Haha, have you ever thought of interpreting mythology in a way of interview that fits the current times?
When it comes to the love between Psyker and Cupid, some parts become more interesting when revealed through various perspectives.
The erratic speech of the reporter conducting the interview and the dialogue that made you laugh out loud made me exclaim that it was so good that mythology was not difficult at all.
Even students read it, I think they will be able to handle it easily. For that reason, I would recommend it.
