Percy Jackson and the Lightning Theif



Rick Riordan

Number of Pages: 375




The Theme of my book is bravery. A few examples from the book showing bravery are; When Percy is on his way to half-blood-hill and he kills a Minotaur to save his best friends life. Another example would be approximately where I am in the book now, when Percy is talking to his uncle, the ruler of the underworld Hades, and trying to convince him to give back Zeus's master bolt.

Sentence: "Return Zeus's master bolt to me," I said. "Please, sir. Let me carry it to Olympus." (Riordan 311)

 The theme of this book takes place in world war 2 the first reasone is that it clearly states that in the book the second reasone is that in one part of the book Albert goes off to fight In the French trenches. And the third piece of evidence is that in the book a man says "the church bells will ring one final time and will not be rung again until  the war is over.

Direct Sentence: “But what shell I do with the cupboard?”asked Omri desperately. “Leave it empty,” said Patrick. “In case.” He didn’t say in case what. But he didn’t have to. Just to know you could. That was enough.

Resolution in this book starts in the last Chapter 16 when main character Omri decides to bring a wife for Little Bear and make a wedding feast for them. He realizes that he needs to turn the figures back into plastic and return them to their own lives. They have the blood brother ceremony and they put all the figures in the cupboard. Omri and Little Bear become blood brothers. Then, Omri and Patrick put the figures on the shelf and the cupboard is empty. Omri gives the key of the cupboard to his mother.
