In this Greek mythology, ADHD, and death-defying adventures are just a few of the ingredients in this high-speed pace, middle-grade novel by Rick Riordan tells about Percy Jackson a half-blood (part human, part god).

Soon, he's wrongly accused of stealing Zeus's sacred thunder bolt, and a cross-country pursuit for the real perpetrator develops, with Annabeth, the daughter of Athena, and Grover, a satyr in tow. A New York Times Notable Book of 2005.

I am writing this because I have just finished reading this book before giving it to a second grader to read. I know that he will love it. I sat and read cover to cover in one night. It was so interresting and I love the ties to greek mythology. I think that this is probably appropriate for grades 3-6. The main charachter is a sixth grader.
