Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief is about a 12 year old boy named Percy Jackson who's getting chased by mythological monsters and his two friends Annabeth Chase, daughter of Athena, and Grover Underwood a satyr who is Percy's protector. Percy was in 6th grade and had just gotten out of school for summer break, when he found out that he was a half-blood, his mother was Sally Jackson, a mortal and his father was Poseidon, king of the sea. Percy got sent to camp Half-Blood for protection from monsters and got assigned a mission to find a lightning bolt that the gods think he stole and prevent a war between the gods, Hades, Poseidon, and Zeus.

The characters in my book are very interesting, there are 3 main characters. Percy, Grover, and Annabeth. Percy is the son of Poseidon who is a Greek God. A powerful God who rules over all the oceans and everything in them. Then there is Percy's best friend Grover, is a Satyr, that is someone who is half horse & half man. Annabeth is the daughter of Athena who is a Greek Goddess.There are other important characters as well in the story like Percy's mom, or the other Gods. Percys personality in the beginning of the book is best described as shyness or acts like he doesn't care, but over the book he expands out of that stage and becomes more outgoing and courageous. Grover is fearless, he has to be because he is Percys protector. But

In the book Percy Jackson: The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan, Percy is your typical 12-year-old boy who is a troublemaker in school and lives with his mother’s abusive husband. Percy’s life changes when he accused of stealing Zeus’ master bolt and attacked by monsters. Percy’s mother is killed along the way towards a camp called Camp Half-Blood and trains his heritage as a demigod. Percy is then sent on a heroic quest, with friends, to prove his innocence and along the way, rescue his mother from Hades. After a long and arduous journey of being chased by monsters, Percy managed to return the lightning bolt and save his mother. Percy is then betrayed by a close friend, as the friend was the thief, and escaped while warning them of the true mastermind.

The novel is an extremely immersive experience owing to the protagonist - Percy Jackson - regularly breaking the fourth wall and speaking directly to the readers. It builds up suspense by foreshadowing the events to come, giving the readers a taste of the challenges awaiting Percy in the pages ahead. Percy is portrayed as the modern-day equivalent of classical heroes. Like the past heroes, Percy is treated differently by those around him, and has trouble fitting in with them. An absent father and a lack of knowledge of his own past help draw further parallels with the classical 'hero' figure. The significant people in Percy's life appear to know something about Percy that he doesn’t know and seek to protect him. Percy, however, is a stubborn

There is often a child in a class that cannot read, spell, speak, or do math as well as they should for their age level. He or she grows up thinking they are stupid, or are going to be unsuccessful in life because they are not “smart” like their classmates. He or she is not stupid, they are usually incredibly smart, and are possibly just dealing with dyslexia. Dyslexia is a type of learning difference that can affect a person’s ability to read, write, speak, and do math. Dyslexia is very common, with one out of every five U.S. school children suffering from dyslexia. Dyslexic children often discover that their parents or a close relative also have some form of learning disability, supporting the idea that dyslexia is hereditary. Dyslexia is

Percy wakes up at a place called camp half-blood. Camp half-blood is created by magical borders in order to protect demigods so they can continue to train while being safe. After entering camp half-blood Percy learns about his identity of being a demigod. A demigod is child from a human and Greek god parent. He learns that he’s the son of one the three major Gods, Poseidon. Also, that his mother is very much alive but is kidnapped by Hades one of the three major Gods as well. Percy then goes into training and utilizes his dragon to be a positive trait that helps him settle into his new life. As his dyslexia functions for mythology and his ADHD helps him keep moving in

Evidently, he grows to be a man of the traits that make a perfect example of a spoiled brat. In most senses, he is the polar opposite of Dunstan, he is extroverted, he has a one-dimensional way of looking at situations, and he is obsessed with the idea of being royalty. Percy knows exactly what he wants, and does not hesitate to defeat anyone in his way to obtain what he desires. Percy can be described as a man of little to no emotion even after recreating himself as the man known as Boy Staunton. Ramsay discovers “Boy Staunton had reached a point in life where he no longer tried to conceal his naked wish to dominate everybody and was angry and ugly when things went against him”(Davies, 232). This shows that Percy is slightly obsessed with power. Percy has an extreme desire to live like royalty, even forcing his wife Leola to learn and act the way that rich people do, forcing her into depression. As a result of both his desire and coming from a rich family, Percy becomes an entitled megalomaniac. This can also be described as the role of the egotist, an archetype that comes with many negative connotations, mainly being self-absorbed. The archetype affects Percy in such a way that he is a perfect example of any trait of the egotist. He is somewhat intelligent, self-centered, emotionally deprived, a know it all and lacks interest in other’s opinions. Percy

Another piece of evidence that Percy is an outsider is that he has a D+ grade average on his report card. Also he is a dyslexic and a hyperactive boy. For example, “I wondered how she could say that. What was so great about me? A dyslexic, hyperactive boy with

Odysseus and Percy Jackson were both very different heroes, but they were both very admirable. Odysseus was always really confident in himself ,and he knew what he wanted and what he fought for. Odysseus always had a plan and usually knew what he wanted to do next. This wasn’t always a good thing ,because he sometimes had problems with taking advice from others and listening to what they had to say.Percy was a lot less confident than Odysseus ,and he wasn’t familiar with how to fight off the extraordinary creatures he came into contact with. Percy was also a lot less sure of himself ,but that made him a really respectable hero. This is why I think both Percy and Odysseus were admirable heroes.

Percy Jackson is forced to endure a life that is split between his human lifestyle and godly activities he must pursue alongside fellow half bloods at camp half blood; located in the state of New York. Little did Percy know however, that a simple dodge ball game with the new kids would turn into a fight for survival as the new kids cultivate to unimaginable size, and turn into vicious, ruthless, and famished Cyclops’ that wish of nothing more than to eviscerate Percy. Luckily Tyson a young Cyclops that has become close friends with Percy and was once abandoned on the streets of Manhattan was there to hold off the monsters in time for Annabeth, daughter of Athena and best friend of Percy, to demolish the remaining monsters. Percy retreats to camp for safety, however as Annabeth would break the news to him, something terrible has happened at

Percy Jackson has many characteristics that make him a great leader. On the physical side, Percy is 5 feet 10 inches, and skinny. He has green eyes and tan skin with black hair. Since Percy is the son of Poseidon, he can breathe underwater and has healing properties when submerged in

Percy Jackson isn't expecting freshman orientation to be any fun. But when a mysterious mortal acquaintance appears on campus, followed by demon cheerleaders, things quickly move from bad to worse. In this latest installment of the blockbuster series, time is running out as war between the Olympians and the evil Titan lord Kronos draws near. Even the safe haven of Camp Half-Blood grows more vulnerable by the minute as Kronos' army prepares to invade its once impenetrable borders. To stop the invasion, Percy and his demigod friends must set out on a quest through the Labyrinth - a sprawling underground world with stunning surprises at every turn. Along the way Percy will confront powerful enemies, find out the truth about the lost god Pan, and face the Titan lord Kronos’s most terrible secret. After the adventure at Percy’s birthday, Poseidon appeared. Then, Nico came and told Percy that he knew how to defeat the titan armies for good.

Percy and Annabeth both have their similarities and differences. They are both half bloods, but come from different gods. Annabeth is wise, and clever, but Percy has dyslexia and ADHD. First, in the text it says, “I’m a child of Athena…and this is an insult to my intelligence.” (Riordan, 184). This states how Annabeth is very serious about her intelligence and does not want to waste it on a stupid quiz, but on the other hand, Percy doesn’t care so much about being smart because he can barely read anything. Also, In the beginning of the book, Percy and Rachel are good friends, and later in the book, Annabeth and Rachel don’t seem to like each other very much. Before that, in the beginning, the text says “Oh, Rachel-Annabeth. Annabeth-Rachel.

The film does a good job of accurately representing some of the minor characters from mythology as well. Percy’s friend Grover is a satyr, and displays a strong interest in many of the females in the film. Chiron, leader of the centaurs makes an appearance as well, disguised as one of Percy’s teachers. He later reveals himself to be a centaur and the leader of the Demigod Camp that Percy travels to. Charon also makes an appearance, and only allows Percy and his friends to travel to the Underworld once they have paid him. As mentioned before, Medusa appears in the film, and expresses her anger towards Athena for transforming her into a monster. She also tells Percy that she ‘used to date [Poseidon],’ which is a more family-friendly version of the Roman story where Poseidon rapes her in Athena’s temple.
