The Demigod Diaries-Text to self

      I am reading,  The Demigod Diaries by Rick Riordan.  The first characters that we are introduced have special powers.  They are the children of the Greek Gods on Earth.  These children have one parent who is a Greek God, and the other being a mortal.  The kids battle monsters in the book to protect others.

      I feel that the book, The Demigod Diaries connects to our world in several ways.  One of these ways is how the kids have to battle monsters that others can't see.  The kids who are not demigods in the story don't see the battles between the demigods and the monsters.  This connects to me in real life because we don't always know what everyone is going through.  People often have problems that they aren't sharing with others around them.

      The book, The Demigod Diaries, and the Percy Jackson series is one of my favorite sets of stories.  I feel that some of the obstacles in the book are things that we can relate to.  I also enjoy how a portion of the book relates to the Greek Gods that we learn about in school.  To be able to learn some past history and follow along in the journey of these characters make me very happy.  I hope that the author will see how important these books are to kids and continues to write more.
