The Green One, Tammuz, is sent to reside on the ground below by his mother, Ishtar, the Babylonian deity of all creation. She, however, becomes so envious of how much love he receives that she has him murdered. For the return of the green spirit, the people pray to their goddess. Ishtar concurs, but not before facing up against the dreadful half-lioness, half-woman who controls the underworld. The magnificent that accompany this lovely rendition of the old Babylonian narrative of the seasons will captivate readers of all ages.
