The Greek gods and goddessess were members of a large extended family headed by Zeus and his wife Hera. Here are fifteen wonderful stories about them, including the tales of how Paris judged who was the fairest goddess of all; how the city of Athens was named; how Phaeton defied his father, the sun god Helios; and some of the less well-known ones: how the dolphins were created and how Hephaestus won Aphrodite for his wife.
