Book Review On: Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief (By Rick Riordan)

         How would you feel if you found out that all the old Greek gods are real and your the son of the Sea God? And you just found out your being blamed for the theft of Zeus's Master Bolt.You would feel just like "Percy Jackson" in Rick Riordan famous book Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief.
           Percy Jackson was a regular kid that had problems in school because he was diagnosed with ADHD and Dyslexia. He was having a field trip to a Greek history museum with his best friend Grove, when he noticed he could read the statues and walls that was written in Greek. As his Latin teacher and his Math teacher noticed his behavior they grow curious. Percy's Math teacher asks to speak with him in private, so he follows her and as he turns around to look at where she went she is at the top of the stairs yelling "WHERE IS IT PERCY JACKSON" she then turns into a creature called a Furies and fly after him. Before he could react his Latin teacher (Charon) and Grover walked in. Charon threw him a pen and told him to uncap it and it turns into a sword. Now fighting back and forth with the beast he happens to cut her making her flee.
        I encourage everyone to read this book it is filled with amazing facts about Greek History and will make you want to get interested in Percy's Life. Also go buy the movie it is Awesome (if i may say so myself).
