What is Japanese Mythology (Mythology Around the World) about?
People told Shinto myths for centuries before they were written down. When they were documented, they were written for the emperor, at his command. In this fascinating book, readers learn about the heavenly deities and Buddhist gods, and the myths about the birth of the sun and moon. Shinto gods and demons are described, and readers discover how the ancient traditions of Shintoism and Buddhism have influenced Japanese customs today. Clearly written, the narrative explains complex myths in a way that middle school readers can understand and enjoy.
