A myth-inspired mystery built around word skills

Set in Ancient Greece, this first installment introduces teenage demigods who lack inherited divine powers but help the gods by solving mysteries and problems. Its chapter-book format includes line-art illustrations, while the text foregrounds word structure: verb endings, adverbs, and comparative and superlative forms. The series is designed as a bridge between decodable and mainstream books, pairing a mythological mystery premise with explicit attention to how words are formed and understood.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • A fit for readers aged 10–14 who benefit from support as they move toward mainstream books.
  • For young readers interested in Greek mythology, mysteries, and illustrated chapter books.
  • Useful for readers practicing word endings, adverbs, and comparative or superlative forms.

Book overview

Mount Olympus Mysteries is a new series of four Hi-Lo chapter books tailored for readers aged 10-14 who need support. With line art illustrations in every chapter, this action-packed tale is sure to engage from beginning to end.


Each instalment in this series follows a group of teenage 'demi-Gods' that didn't inherit any god-like powers, but they prove useful to the Gods by solving mysteries and problems in Ancient Greece. The characters must overcome self-doubt and discover their skills even though they may be disappointed that "powers" haven't come easily to them.

Each book is carefully written with a focus on morphology, suffixes, prefixes, and word roots/bases. The Mount Olympus Mysteries series serves as a vital bridge between decodable and mainstream books, empowering readers to confidently understand meaning from text alone.

This first book in the series has a morphology focus of verb endings (s, es, ed, ing), adverbs (ly), comparatives, and superlatives.
