Dinner with King Midas coloring book page (Patreon)

This month's coloring book image comes from our lesson, The myth of King Midas and his golden touch by educator Iseult Gillespie with animation by TED-Ed's Jeremiah Dickey. In Greek mythology, King Midas is known as a rogue ruler whose antics bemused his people and irritated the Gods. Many know the classic story of Midas's golden touch, but the foolish king was also known for his unusual pair of ears. Here's a glimpse at dinner in his palace before eating anything on the table would have shattered his teeth.
