Fun Greek Mythology Gift Ideas for Kids who Love Percy JacksonThese fun Greek mythology gift ideas for kids who love Percy Jackson marks the end of our summer reading challenge. I hope you had as much fun as we did reading through the entire Percy Jackson and the Olympians series by Rick Riordan and enjoyed all the Greek mythology adventures along the way.

Here’s a little about the series to catch you up: Percy Jackson is a 5-book series that has been on the New York Times bestseller list for over 500 weeks and is recommended for readers ages 8+. Middle graders will learn about Greek mythology as the series offers readers a fresh and exciting way to learn about the Olympians, the Titans, the Minotaur, and more.

My oldest two were in Greek mythology heaven reading through the entire series this summer. They have been devouring the books and just finished the very last book of the series, The Last Olympian. In this book, the half-bloods have been preparing all year for battle against the Titans, knowing the odds of victory are grim. Kronos’ army is stronger than ever, and with every god and half-blood he recruits, the evil Titan’s power only grows.

Fun Greek Mythology Gift Ideas for Kids who Love Percy JacksonWhile the Olympians struggle to contain the rampaging monster Typhon, Kronos begins his advance on New York City, where Mount Olympus stands virtually unguarded. Now it’s up to Percy Jackson and an army of young demigods to stop the Lord of Time. In this momentous final book in the New York Times best-selling Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, the long-awaited prophecy surrounding Percy’s sixteenth birthday unfolds. And as the battle for Western civilization rages on the streets of Manhattan, Percy faces a terrifying suspicion that he may be fighting against his own fate.
