Language Analyst
  • The Lightning Thief
  • Some interesting words in this book are
    minotaur and Myth. A minotaur Is a a monster
    that is half man half bull. A myth is a legend
    that gives meaning.
  • Some interesting phrases are, A leave of
    absence and The game goes to me. The phrase a
    leave of absence means to go away for a while.
  • The phrase The game goes to me means that you
    won the game.
  • The Sea of Monsters
  • Some interesting word are cannibal and
    demigods. Cannibal means something that only
    eats meat and a demigod is someone who has a god
    as a parent and a mortal as a parent.
  • Some interesting phrases are A stunning new
    secret and surprisingly quiet, which means it
    is usually loud. The phrase, a stunning new
    secret, means a not expected knowledge.

The Titans Curse An interesting word is prophecy
and a prophecy is a telling for the future. An
interesting phrase is The young heroes have just
fallen prey and what that means is to become
what another wants.
The Battle of the Labyrinth An interesting word
is sprawl and what that means is to spread. An
interesting phrase is A mysterious acquaintance
with a mortal and what that means is a meeting
with a human.
My words/phrases ideas My word ideas would be
shiver and crimson. My Phrases would be You send
shivers down mine spine or Her hair was as
crimson as a ruby.

    take a turn for the worst when Lexis gets
    kidnapped by Luke, Percys enemy. While trying to
    save Lexis, Percy begins to wonder why Luke would
    want Lexis. Could it be that Lexis has something
    Luke wants or is it just a trap for Percy? Find
    out in the next Percy Jackson series Hide and I
    Shall Seek.
