A hilarious, heartwarming twist on Greek mythology, perfect for anyone who has ever felt a little bit different.
Alex is like any other twelve-year-old: hes trying to survive school, navigate awkward body changes, and avoid his parents embarrassing talks. But Alex is hiding a secret...
Alex is part-minotaur. You read that right part-boy, part-bull. Instead of just battling with spots the size of Mars (thanks, puberty) and the looming school musical, he also has to worry about horns and hairy toes! Just when he thinks life couldn't get worse, a new kid, Theseus, shows up at school, and hes on a quest to capture a minotaur. And a clumsy one like Alex is an easy target
With heart, humor, and a lot of mythological chaos, Shane Hegarty's Minotaur Boy is a fantastical twist on the everyday embarrassments of growing up and the struggle to fit in.
This myth-inspired middle-grade adventure for kids 8-12 will resonate with and inspire anyone whos ever felt different or anyone who has ever been hunted by a demi-god!
