About the Book The Lightning Thief
The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan is an exciting fantasy novel that introduces readers to Percy Jackson, a 12-year-old boy who discovers he is the son of Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea. Percy, who struggles with dyslexia and ADHD, finds himself expelled from yet another school after a series of strange events. His life takes a dramatic turn when he learns about his divine heritage and is sent to Camp Half-Blood, a safe haven for demigod children.
At Camp Half-Blood, Percy meets other demigods, including Annabeth Chase, the daughter of Athena, and Grover, a satyr. Together, they embark on a quest to prevent a war among the gods by retrieving Zeus’s stolen lightning bolt. Their journey takes them across the United States, where they face numerous mythological monsters and challenges.
Throughout the adventure, Percy learns about his strengths, the importance of friendship, and the complexities of his identity. The novel seamlessly intertwines contemporary settings with ancient Greek mythology, crafting an engaging narrative that delves into themes of courage, loyalty, and self-discovery.
