Well-researched and true to the original myths, each volume in the <I>Goddess Girls </I>series addresses contemporary issues like friendships and relationships from a classically accurate—and entertaining—persepective.<P>In <I>Aphrodite the Beauty</I>, Aphrodite, goddessgirl of love, must deal with jealousy after giving Athena a makeover. It doesn't seem fair that the godboys pay more attention to her friend when Aphrodite is supposed to be destined for love! She also copes with a crush from an unlikely source—the nerdy Hephaestus (god of the smith)—and learns that love comes in many forms.
