Everybody's heard of a centaur, but not everyone has seen a blue centaur dressed to head out to a disco! He's one of the updated mythological creatures who populate Greece! Rome! Monsters!.

Includes a bonus pronunciation guide and a pop quiz that will test to see if young readers have really been paying attention.
