What’s in a name?

STET is Latin for 'let it stand'. It's used by proofreaders to overrule a suggested edit. The babySTETs blog aims to give you the confidence to know what to do and what not to do as you venture through the world children's book writing, editing and publishing.

Orpheus and Eurydice (The Greek Classics)

Orpheus’s music makes even animals listen and rocks want to dance. But when he loses his beloved wife, Eurydice, he only sings songs of love and loss: about Zeus’s cup-bearer Ganymede and Pygmalion’s statue Galatea; about Aphrodite, who found and lost Adonis before finding him again.

Can Orpheus’s music soften the heart of Hades, God of the Underworld, and convince him to return Eurydice to the land of the living?
