Aphrodite the Beauty (Goddess Girls #3)

Description

Well-researched and true to the original myths, each volume in the Goddess Girls series addresses contemporary issues like friendships and relationships from a classically accurate--and entertaining--perspective.

In Aphrodite the Beauty, Aphrodite, goddess girl of love, must deal with jealousy after giving Athena a makeover. It doesn't seem fair that the god boys 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.
