Rick Riordan's "The Lightning Theif" is the start of Riordan's popular Greek mythology books. In this book, Percy Jackson's life is about to forever change. Percy Jackson is an ADHD teenager who through a life-and-death experience realizes that he has not and never will be normal. If you've seen the movie, don't equate how good those were with this because the books are much better.
This book is perfect for kids who want to have powers/special abilities because the main character experiences that change. Percy must go through many challenges and tribulations to prove his innocence for a crime that could rip the world apart.
"The Lightning Theif" shows the value of good family and friendship. This is not only a really good book, but also a great set-up for the 4 remaining books in the Percy Jackson series. Overall, I would strongly recommend this book.
