Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief
Review
Percy Jackson: Juvenile delinquent. Yet he finds himself on a fantastic tale through Greek mythology. Percy is whisked from a boring field trip in a museum, to a magnificent camp made for "special" kids like him. At this wonderful camp, he learns that he's more "special" than he thinks, for he is a son of one of the three magnificent Olympian gods. But Percy has been framed for stealing one of the most prized possessions of all gods. Will he clear his innocent name? Or will he be at the mercy of the powerful Olympians? With its perfect touch of humor, action, and adventure, Percy Jackson and the Olympians will have you reading on until the last period of this epic novel.  Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief

Belly Up
Review
During the Summer I have been reading a book called Belly Up that I got from the Kirkwood Public Library. It is a book about a boy named Teddy who lives with his parents at an amusement park called "Fun Jungle". Fun Jungle has a large variety of animals. And the mascot of Funjungle just happens to be one of their Hippos named Henry. Henry is loved by all of America. Any of the merchandise at Fun Jungle that they can get Henry on, has Henry on it. But one day Teddy sees a large crowd of people around Henry's enclosure so he goes over to investigate. Henry is in his pool belly up and dead. Who or what killed Henry? Why did they do it? Find out in Belly Up By: Stuart Gibbs.  Belly Up
