Hercules.

Little sister.

Play nice, Hercules!

I am not nice. I am strong.

I can wham-bam monsters!

I can whomp-stomp bad guys!

I can ka-boom castles!

Hercules, are you

playing nice?

I’m sorry.

I will fix it!

See? All better.

Ka-boom!

Hercules was a super-strong hero. But a troublemaking

goddess named Hera caused him to accidentally hurt his

family. To prove how very sorry he was for his terrible

mistake, Hercules decided to complete twelve challenges,

called labors. The labors were: battle a scary Nemean

lion, outsmart a nine-headed Hydra snake, catch the

goddess Diana’s golden-horned deer, capture a wild boar,

clean a big stable of sheep and other animals, chase away

a flock of fierce birds, bring King Minos’s fire-breathing

bull to King Eurystheus, round up a herd of horses, have

a sword fight with an Amazon warrior queen to win her

belt, find the Geryon monster’s herd of cattle, pick golden

apples from a secret garden, and wrestle a humongous

dog named Cerberus! Hercules bravely completed these

labors and was forgiven by everyone.
