This book was cute! I enjoyed Artemis and the other characters (even Orion). I enjoyed seeing the character development with Artemis as she realized what bravery is and learned from the Orion situation. I know this is the second time I’ve read these books (third time for the first two) so it may just be nostalgia that’s making me love these books but I do think they’re very sweet, simple, fun books for young readers (that older readers can enjoy too) that have also prompted me to look up the Greek mythology and compare the differences from it to the books and I’m impressed with what these authors have done with it.

This is a story that knows how to catch you off guard even though it's a kid's book.

The book was ok. I liked how they connected Orion's belt (the constellation) into the play they were doing. If you enjoy Greek mythology and want a lite book to read that has some tibits of mythology than give this series a try. Not a hard read for a 5th grader.

I would have given this a 3.5. I liked the book and it was a great way to introduce this Greek goddess as an actual character with thoughts , feelings, and personality. I think girls in grades 4 and up will like it. I could see some boys enjoying it too. I wish it didn't have the boy/ girl relationship spin but then again it is about the Greek Gods! All in all an interesting book. I will buy more in the series as I can see it being popular.

I keep wondering if I should count these because they are so fluffy. At the same time so what? They are cute and easy to read in less than an hour.
