Escape from Mr Lemoncello's Library

Mr. Lemoncello makes games and loves to read. Kyle Keely loves his games so much that he broke a window playing one.  When he hears that the person that writes the best essay gets to stay at the new library with Mr. Lemoncello he writes an essay. Guess what? He gets picked with fourteen other kids.  When they got to the library they found that it was no ordinary library.  Mr. Lemoncello made the library like a huge game board.  One time Kyle had to crawl through a tunnel to find a clue and a lot of file cabinets were shooting out at him.   Kyle and his teammates worked really hard to win the game.  The game lasted for two days.  They had tons of clues to follow to win the game.  Kyle and his teammates got out of the library by a window and won the game.  After that they went to Mr. Lemoncello’s birthday party and I am sure they had fun.      

Percy Jackson and The Olympians

Percy Jackson And The Olympians

The Last Olympian

By Rick Riordan

Percy Jackson is a demi god, which is very dangerous on his account because the more that they know the more that they smell like a monsters lunch. Let me start of at the beginning, well Percy sneaks on to a boat with a bunch of monsters on it including the evil titan lord Kronos. Then he puts a lot of bombs in the engine room and before they knew it the ship blew up. It was too bad for the monsters but great for Percy.  Next thing Percy knows he is under water with his Dad, Poseidon the sea god. He is at his Dad’s side and his Dad is fighting a war so he tells Percy to go to camp half blood.  When he gets back to camp the camp director has him go and read the great prophecy he almost faints when he reads it because it says a single choice shall end his days.  It also says that there is going to be a war and they start getting all the campers they can to fight in the war.  Then they go into the Town Square and start manning the bridges trying to stop Kronos’s army from getting across the ocean.  Bad news they do and they make it into Olympus and Percy has to fight Kronos. Let me just tell you one thing Kronos’s body is not his body it is Luke’s a powerful demi gods body. 

It ends up that Percy does not defeat Kronos it is really Luke. Percy gives him a knife and Luke stabbed himself in the shoulder and then Kronos dies. Even though Luke was a bad guy that does not matter now that Luke killed Kronos.  Then they notice that Luke is badly wounded and then he dies. They give him a shroud, which I think is like wrapping paper for dead people but back to the story they take him away and then the story gets interesting.  The gods start calling the hero’s up one by one to give them awards. First they call up Grover a boy that helped in the war and they make him a leader then they call up Annabeth and they let her be mount Olympus’s personal architect.  Then it was Percy’s turn the gods offered him the will of becoming a god.  Percy said no but he asked them to claim their children by the time they turned thirteen the gods agreed and that ended the story.
