I liked King Midas because he is silly.

It was really interesting to find out more about what King Midas. Also it was confusing when they changed an animal to king. I would recommend it to my friends as it's appropriate for 10year old.

That book was awesome because of silly Icarus not doing as he was told flying to close to the sun and then diving in to the sea . The funny thing about King Midas was his ears kept getting longer

I liked how he invented wings for himself to try and get out of trouble.
