"Tanglewood Tales" by Nathaniel Hawthorne is a collection of classic myths and legends rewritten for kids in the 1800s. A young author named Eustace Bright wants to create exciting new stories from these myths, so he talks with an experienced writer. They meet in a cozy summer house where Eustace shares his ideas and love for the old stories. His goal is to make the myths fun and interesting for young people, showing themes of growing up, going on adventures, and staying innocent that both kids and adults can enjoy as he retells "The Minotaur" and other stories.
