Book talk #2- Percy Jackson and the Olympians the lightning thief

Hook- Imagine being a regular normal boy one day and the next you figure out that you are a half blood because your father is the G-D of the sea Poseidon. Then you figured out that Zeus’s master bolt was stolen and you are their main suspect. And it was all up to you and your friends to restore peace within the G-d’s and the world.
My name is Maayan Fadida and the book I am doing is called Percy Jackson and the Olympians the lightning thief by Rick Riordan.

Summary- It all starts out with a boy named Percy Jackson that has been kicked out of too many boarding schools to count. At the moment he is being kicked out of a school but that is not exactly at the top of his list right now. Percy has been experiencing some odd things to him like having mythological creatures walk straight out of your history book and having your teacher turn into an animal at the museum. All of these things were answered to Percy when learned that he is the son of Poseidon and that he is a half-blood.

Zeus the G-d of the sky’s master bolt has been stolen and their main suspect is Percy. Percy and his friends have been sent on a quest to find the bolt and return it to Zeus before the summer solstice in ten days. Percy can’t take a plane to where he needs to go because he cannot go in the sky because the Zeus is up there and he thinks that Percy stole his bolt. So, bad things could happen. Did they return the bolt to Zeus or not you’ll have to read to find out.

I recommend this book to people who like adventure and fantasy. I think this book is suitable for kids the ages of 9- 13.

This book is available in the school library
