The Lightning Thief

I really loved this book, because I love Greek mythology. Percy is a normal kid… except for his ADHD, and dyslexia… and knack for getting in trouble. Soon, after an attack by his teacher, Mrs. Dodds, who turns into a fury, he figures out why. He’s a demigod, and a child of Poseidon at that! Now, he’s thrust into a world he never asked to be a part of, and he’s making a lot of enemies. On top of that, he was chosen for a quest to return Zeus’ missing lightning bolt. He has to fight mythical monsters, bargain with gods, and attempt to make sure his teammates don’t kill him. Percy Jackson and the lightning thief is a great book for a fan of action, mythology or just straight up adventure!
