About the Book

Includes an excerpt from Hermes, the fastest god.

Book Synopsis

Little gods, big personalities! This series follows little versions of the Greek gods who are at a camp so they can learn to control their powers and use them properly-as well as learn to get along with one another.

The next book in this series follows Athena as the Little Olympians prepare for their own Olympic Games! All the other gods brag about what competitions they'll win because of their powers--Artemis and Apollo will surely win any bow-and-arrow practice, Ares will win any strength competition, and Hermes will win any footrace--but in what event can Athena possibly take the gold? Sure she's wise, but she can't match their godly powers . . . or can she?

As the games begin, Athena has to find unconventional ways to stay in the competition. Will she be able to use strategy and cunning to win the Olympics and show that knowledge is the ultimate power?
