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 …show more content…
3 person is where or who he is talking about. The order of the book is in present time. They use the same states and capitals as present time. In the end they go to the Hollywood sign in California. They go to Las Vegas and Tennessee. They also go to Michigan in the beginning of the book. The author decided to write the book this way because he wanted to foreshadow you in ways. The way he did this was to make the chapters blend with each other or to mix and make good chapters and a good book. Also the reason why he makes it all blend is because when you write or make a story or book, it doesn't just jump to one event to the next. But the author does the exact opposite. 1.

My favorite character in this book would have to be Peter. He was a little bit of a tough guy yet timid, but wasn’t afraid to fight for his siblings lives. Peter was the oldest amongst his brother and two sisters and was most likely the brains and brawn of the bunch. In this story, Peter has to fight off a wolf to test his courage or, in Aslan’s words, win his spurs. He returns victorious and is knighted by the lion called Aslan. His brother Edmund, a very mischievous boy and a bother to his sisters Lucy and Susan, looks up to Him though he never admits to it. Peter was definitely the highlight of this book.

How can we modernize a story to make it more relatable and understanding to a new generation of learners? The book, Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief based on the original,“The Legend of Perseus,” is taken and molded into a new take on ancient greek mythology. Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief draws on and adds to the original characters, uses similarities and creates differences to rejuvenate the old story.
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

Totalitarianism is defined as a political system of government in which those in power have complete control and do not allow people to oppose them. Those in power are a single party dictatorship in which one party controls state, and all other parties are forbidden. Other important features that distinguish or help define totalitarianism include restricted or eliminated constitutional rights, state terrorism, and totalitarian rulers are known as ideological dictators. The government of Oceania, in the novel 1984, is an example of totalitarian society. Germany, under Adolf Hitler’s National Socialism is another example of totalitarianism. Orwell’s Oceania has both similarities and differences to the totalitarian states of the twentieth

In the books, The Titan’s Curse and The Battle Of The Labyrinth, personalities of various characters have been exposed to the reader. In the book The Titan’s Curse, some of the characters were forced to make indelible decisions because if they make the wrong choice, they will have to live with it forever. At the end of this book, Percy took a path on which he basically had the world on his shoulders. He saw the Goddess of the hunters carrying the sky on her shoulders, and Percy had to take the burden from her so she could fight the God of war. Percy described it saying it felt like his bones were going to be shattered any second. Many of the characters true colors were showed in that battle. So far in the book, The Battle Of The Labyrinth, Grover was hit by a brick wall because he lost the trail on Pan. Grover’s entire family has been searching for this mysterious person named Pan for centuries. Many have died searching and Grover is not going to give up. He had just lost Pan’s trail and was devastated. Then, to make matters worse, the council told him that he has a week to find Pan or his searcher license will be taken away. He had no confidence at all because he knew it was virtually impossible to find Pan in a week. Grover had his hopes down until Annabeth asked him to join her in an expedition down in to Labyrinth to try and stop Luke’s army from storming their camp. The Labyrinth may have answers that Grover is looking for and this brought his confidence
