I enjoyed reading the 1st book in the Percy Jackson series (The Lightning Thief) to the kids at Field Camp this summer. Many campers decided to listen to a chapter each day even though they had read the book several times before, which proved to me how beloved this series of books is. Unfortunately, I had to leave camp before we had finished the book! So I still don't know what happens!
Having not even finished the 1st book, I have a lot of reading to do before I get to the 4th... But, I still found this video of Rick Riordan (the author) reading a little taste of book 4, The Battle of the Labyrinth interesting... Check it out:

I love Word Girl and her extensive vocabulary!
Why does Word Girl care about words so much?
And what does "word usage" mean?
How about these words... What do they mean?:
"clarity"
"villainy"
"absconding"
"baubles"
"arduous"
