Percy Jackson is a 12-year-old kid with ADHD and dyslexia who keeps getting kicked out of schools. His life changes forever when he discovers he's actually a demigod—the son of Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea. Percy is accused of stealing Zeus's lightning bolt, the most powerful weapon in the world, and must travel across America to find the real thief and prevent a war among the gods. Along with his new friends Annabeth (daughter of Athena) and Grover (a satyr protector), he faces monsters, gods, and dangerous quests while learning about his true identity.
