Question:
What would keep my boy up to all hours of the night?
What would keep his attention so focused so that when he comes home from school he forgets to take off his backpack and just sits down at the kitchen counter to read?
Answer:
The Lighting Thief by Rick Riordan
OK just a quick update:
Kyle finished Book#2 "The Sea of Monsters" Dec 2nd
Madison finished Book #2 Dec 3rd
Annette (MOM) finished the Book#1 today Dec 4th
Jennifer, Grandma, and Kiresten are all reading Book#1
ASIDE: When I was in JR High, I loved anything with Greek Mythology. I guess not much has changed since then. Thanks Kyle for getting all of us so excited to read this book. Cool website I found about the book that give back ground on the charactors is http://percyjackson.wikia.com/wiki/The_Lightning_Thief . It really helped me to keep them all straight.
