Percy Jackson
I like Percy...

I like Percy Jackson because it is an exciting book and an exciting movie too. My favorite part from Percy Jackson the movie is when they are trying to find the first pearl and they are at Aunty Em's Garden Emporium.  You see Medusa has snakes for her hair she got cursed by Athena to give her snakes for her hair in the movie and also if you look in Medusa's eyes you turn into a statue. My least favorite scene is none of the scenes they are all good. My second favorite part is when they are in the lotus casino and Grover is dancing. My first favorite character is Grover Underwood. Because he is funny and a good actor. My second favorite character is Annabeth Chase. because she is active and she is a good actor. My third favorite character is Percy Jackson the main character. My least favorite character is Medusa. Because she is evil mean and a bad character. And also I don't like the Fury or the Minotar. They are both bad characters too. So back to the movie. Percy Jackson is living in an apartment with his mom and Gabe. Gabe is a bad character too. So Percy Jackson goes to Yancy Academy for school. Percy has dislexia and adhd. When his teacher Miss Dodds asks him a question, he doesn't know the answer to the question. The question was: What was Shakespeare trying to say in this sentence? About three to four people raised their hands. But Miss Dodds has chosen Percy. And Percy didn't even raise his hand. Then his dilexia messed him up. And then he came home from school and then he said to his mother, I thought this school was suppose to help me. I think this dilexia thing is getting worse. Gabe comes in. He sits down. Then he says, Sally where's my beer? Then Sally says, It's in the fridge. Gabe says, Is it supposed to magically float into my hands? Sally stops ironing and gets to the fridge and gets the beer for Gabe. And then Percy goes to the museum with Mr. Bruner and the class. Mr Bruner is the teacher for the class. Mr. Bruner says, There are twelve Olympian gods. Three of them are called Zeus, Posiden, and Hades. Miss Dodds asks Percy, Percy Jackson, we need to have a talk. Percy comes with Miss Dodds. She is on this table like thirteen feet in the air. Then Percy says, Wow, Miss Dodds. Give me the lightning bolt and I'll let you go. Percy says, What lightning bolt? Then Miss Dodds turns into a Fury. Miss Dodds lifts Percy up into the air. Like fifteen feet in the air. Mr. Bruner comes in and Grover too. Mr. Bruner says, Put him down or I'll tear you to pieces. Then Miss Dodds drops Percy on the ground and leaves by going through a glass window.
