At birth, Hermes, son of Zeus and the Nymph Maia, says his first word: "Gimme " In this brilliant, hilarious graphic novel about the mischievous, fun-loving messenger of the gods, Caldecott Medal winner Mordicai Gerstein, transports classical mythology to the 21st century.

"The world " the newly born Hermes says. "It's even better than I expected I love it I want it all "

This book is filled with joy, exuberance, and humor. On his first day of life, Hermes manages to trick a turtle into surrendering its shell and a ram into surrendering its horns, thereby inventing the lyre, music, and song He also manages to steal his brother Apollo's precious cows, but later redeems himself by outwitting the giant brothers Otus and Ephialtes, who have kidnapped Mars.

These adventures and more, all derived from classical mythology, are told with great humor as well as a twenty-first century sensibility by the colossally talented Mordicai Gerstein.

The art in this graphic novel is truly spectacular, with 250 illustrations, executed by a master artist and filled with unique humor.

These are great
Style: 20 Ounces, Size: 56 Count
These hold my hot and cold foods with no problem. I have not had an issue with leaking and it’s been safe to use in the microwave. I’ve even had liquidy foods in it. Like juices from the food. I have also eaten soups with no issues. Great price and durable.

Strong, Reliable Plates for Everyday Use
Style: 10 Inch, Size: 100 Count
These Dixie Ultra paper plates are a great upgrade from regular disposable plates. They’re strong and sturdy, so they don’t bend or leak even with heavier or saucy foods. Perfect for everyday meals, cookouts, or quick cleanups when you don’t feel like doing dishes. The 10-inch size is just right for full meals, and the pack lasts a good while. I’ve used them for hot foods without any issues—they hold up really well. Overall, dependable quality and worth paying a little extra compared to cheaper, flimsy options.

Best Plates Ive ever known!
Style: 10 Inch, Size: 172 Count (Pack of 1), Style: 10 Inch, Size: 172 Count (Pack of 1)
If you’re tired of the "double-plate shimmy" where you have to stack two flimsy plates just to survive a barbecue, the Dixie Ultra 10-Inch Plates are a total game-changer. This 172-count bulk pack is the gold standard for anyone who actually likes to pile on the food. Why They’re Worth It: True Strength: The "3X Stronger" claim isn't just marketing fluff. These can handle a massive helping of steak, potato salad, and corn on the cob without folding under pressure. Soak-Proof Shield: They feature a high-quality coating that keeps grease and sauces from leaking through to your lap or your table. Microwave Safe: Unlike some cheaper alternatives, these don't get soggy or "wilt" when you're reheating leftovers. Value Size: Getting 172 plates (divided into 4 convenient packs) means you're set for multiple parties, holidays, or just those nights when you really don't want to do the dishes. Bottom Line: These are the "heavy lifters" of the paper plate world. They’re large enough for a full dinner and tough enough to handle the messiest meals. Highly recommended for anyone who values durability over price-point flimsy alternatives.
