Signy adores the fabulous fantasy Rick Riordan Percy Jackson and the Olympian books. She insisted I read The Lightening Thief and now I am just about finished with Sea of Monsters. The Greek Gods are primary characters giving birth to half-bloods, human children who are exceptionally bright and who spend their summers at Camp Half-Blood where they take on magical and super human qualities. Both books have been made into motion pictures.
Among the books in our library are those I saved when I taught literature at the middle school. I am looking so forward to sharing these with the girls.
Our grandson's bus drops him off at our house every afternoon. His dad picks him up around 6:30. One of my jobs is to help him get started on his homework. I'm enjoying math this time around. Right now, Andrew is reading SARGEANT REX, about an army dog handler in Iraq and his faithful bomb-sniffing sidekick, Rex.
