Percy Jackson's Greek Heroes by A funny , sarcastic addition to Rick Riordan's Greek mythology. The illustrations are hilarious and beautiful at the same time. It's not an advanced read but anyone that doesn't have dirt in their head will find this book witty and entertaining. Each of the twelve stories take you on an adventure in Ancient Greece. The book is factual but cloaked in middle school sarcasm and is told from the perspective of a teenager. I would highly recommended this book to anyone who thirst for knowledge and who appreciates edgy humor.

Tales from India by This book is a great read for kids who don't read as advanced books. I am not
all that great at understanding, and this book really broke it down for me and really helped me understand it. It also includes great illustrations by Amanda Hall! The book has multiple small stories in it about different tales and myths about Hinduism. I would recommend this book to everybody, it is a great fun read!
