About This Book

Greek gods have never been so kid-friendly! Putting a modern spin on the classic myths, this clever series follows the adventures of the god-boys and goddess-girls who hone their mythical skills at Mount Olympus Academy.Not that long ago, Athena was the new kid at Mount Olympus Academy, so she knows exactly what the new student, Heracles, is going through. But unlike Athena, Heracles is a mortal, and he's going to need a little help fitting in. What's more, he needs to complete 12 "labors" — or he's going to get kicked out of the Academy! It's going to take all of Athena's famed wisdom to help Heracles face the mythical beasts and other dangerous things!
