Zeus was the king of all the gods. Zeus had two brothers: Poseidon, and Hades. When their father died, Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades divided the world between themselves. Zeus took the sky, Poseidon took the sea, and Hades took the underworld.
Zeus had a very jealous wife named Hera. He also had a many kids: Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Aphrodite, Hermes, Helen of Troy. His children had special magical powers. Apollo and Artemis were twins.
Zeus was the most powerful god. He could shape shift and look like anybody, for example an animal. He could throw lightning bolts. Pegasus was his horse.
Zeus had a quick temper, and a big sense of humor.
The Trojan horse
Once
upon a time, a long time ago, there was an ancient city named Troy.
Troy was located on the coast of Asia, across the sea from the Greek
city-state of Sparta.
One
day, a Greek general, Odysseus, had a tricky idea. "We'll leave a gift
for Troy, a gift to announce the end of the war, a wooden horse with 30
men hidden inside. At night, these men can open the gate of Troy!"
When
it was ready, the Greeks brought the huge wooden horse to Troy's city.
The Trojan king said, "It's so beautiful! Let's keep it forever as a
reminder of our victory!"
That
night, while the Trojan people were sleeping, the 30 Greek men climbed
out the horse and opened the gates of Troy. The Greek army came inside.
That was the end of Troy.
