Description
Age range 9 to 13
Call Me Athena takes readers on an exciting journey with Athena, the Greek Goddess of Wisdom, who steps fully formed from her father's head into the already established world of the Olympians. As a motherless newcomer, Athena must find her own place and purpose among the gods.
Her adventures lead her down to Earth, where she forges close bonds with Greek heroes. Her attachment to three in particular—Diomedes, Odysseus, and Achilles—pulls her into the heart of the Trojan War. Readers will be intrigued to discover how Athena protects her friends and attempts to end the conflict, exploring its ramifications on Olympus.
This narrative, told by Athena in the first person, provides young readers with a unique entry into the rich world of Greek mythology. The book also includes a fascinating nonfiction section, complete with a family tree of the Olympians, maps, and photographs, offering cultural and historical context that enhances the tale.
