I am reading a series of books that is called Percy Jackson and the Olympians You might have seen my post about the movie. But now I am going to tell you about the author, Rick Riordan. I would like to tell you some of the chapters that in the books that were funny.
- The vice principal gets a missile launcher.
- Thalia torches New England
- Everybody hates me but the horse
- I learn how to grow zombies
- I break a few rocket ships
- Grover gets a Lamborghini
- I go snowboarding with a pig
- I wrestle santa’s evil twin
- We meet the dragon of eternal bad breath
- I put on a few million extra pounds
- The Gods vote how to kill us
Those are the funny chapters for book number three, The Titan’s Curse. The next chapters are going to be from book two, The Sea Monsters.
- My best friend shops for a wedding dress
- I play dodgeball with cannibals
- We hail the taxi of eternal torment
- Demon pigeon attack
- I have the worst family reunion ever
- We hitch a ride with dead confederates
- Clarisse blows up everything
- Annabeth tries to swim home
- The party ponies invade
- The chariot race ends with a bang
I like Rick Riordan’s writing because he understands humor for kids. He know what kids will like or won’t like. That is why he put in all these funny chapters.
At one point in the chapter, The Party Ponies Invade, there is this one centaur who shot a paint ball into a monster’s mouth. Then he made an impression of him. The centaur said, “Whoa like dude I have a paintball in my mouth.” And then he started laughing. So that is why I like Rick Riordan and his writing.
