Recommendation from ds1 (9) especially if you enjoy Greek Myths

[roisin]

Rick Riordan: Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief and there's a sequel now too.
DS1 hasn't been so excited and animated about a novel for some time. He 'did' the Greeks this year at school, so knows all the myths already, which helps I think!

Will have a look for that - thanks. DS1's Greek topic this year was about the only school subject that animated him and he is already very excited about Y4 when they 'do' the Romans.

try " Tales from the Odyssey", retells the story of Odysseus and his adventures with Greek gods and goddesses, monsters, and sea witches in a 6 chapter books. we read one and it was great. by Mary Pope Osborne

Thanks Christie - we may try those.
