Love this book
I love this book and love the full page illustrations as I read it to my elementary aged son. It's great to get to pass down a favorite series and the books very good condition. 👍

Beautifully Illustrated 😍
This was AMAZING. I've long been a Rick Riordan fan but I am now mama to an 8 year old boy who HATES to read. He loves being read to, and we have started with some of the stories I was enchanted by as kind/teen/young adult.He like Harry Potter but I stumbled across this illustrated version after I read the Heroes of Olympus series for myself. I thought he would love it and I was right! He is enthralled by the pictures, which were BREATH TAKING and excited by the story line. This book is pretty advanced for average 2nd graders, lots of big words, full of Greek words because it's fiction based off of Greek Mythology. So amazing though. Everyone looked just like I had always pictured in my head!Usually we do 1 chapter a night, but when we started reading The Lightning Theif, often we read 3 per night because he was BEGGING to see/hear more.We were SO EAGER to get our hands on the second one, and I was SO BUMMED that I could find it- as it turns out they didn't illustrate any further, the closes I can get are the graphic novels, AKA the comic book versions and it is just NOT the same thing. 😭PLEASE DO THE NEXT BOOK EXPEDITIOUSLY!

Beautiful and imaginative
This book was exactly what I hoped for. We bought this for our nephew for Christmas. He’s a big Harry Potter fan, but he’s too young to get past book three. We bought this hoping to get him interested in the series and give him something new to follow. Not only was the story a hit (I knew it would be), but the illustrations are beautiful and exactly what I’d imagined from Rick Riordan’s scene descriptions. I also love the map of Camp Half-blood. Truly hoping that there will be illustrated copies of the rest!Side note: My sister-in-law was excited to know about the teaching aids on the author website as well.

Amazing Illustrations
The pictures add so much to the story. I read it to a kid that claims to hate reading, and it even got him engaged!

Great New Version of a Much Loved Book
Wonderful illustrated version of this loved book. I thought this would be the perfect bridge into reading full chapter books and it really was. My 5 year old son loved listening to the story and the illustrations helped him stay connected to the book.

Big book with pics
Big book with wonderful pictures, my child in 4th grade is reading this with her class and loves it. Text is much easier to read than the little book.

Beautiful illustrations! Perfect for a Riordan fan
I love mythology long before Riordan published his first Percy Jackson books. I love his books and creative ideas of setting mythologies into our modern era. When I saw that they were doing an illustrated version of "The Lightning Thief", I knew that I just had to get a copy. It makes re-reading all the more fun! The illustrations are beautiful, they are done by the same artist who illustrated Riordan's "Percy Jackson's Greek Gods" and "Percy Jackson's Greek Heroes". I hope that like the Harry Potter series, they will continue to do more illustrated version of the other books in the series.

Perfect
Just as described, looks great. This book is so difficult to get that a bit of wear to the jacket is nothing.

PERFEITO PARA UM SEMIDEUS!!!
Estava com muita dúvida se comprava ou não, mas vi alguns videos no YouTube e resolvi arriscar, e valeu muito a pena!!! A capa é um papel que é possível retirar (o papel é bem sensível então tome cuidado com ele na hora de tirar ou guardar) a capa em si com o papel retirado é um azul com uma testura mais aveludada, com o relevo de um tridente.desenhos lindos (algumas páginas não tem desenho porém eu não achei problema já que os desenhos são muito realistas e bem feitos) espero ter ajudado!!!

El diseño está muy padre
Esta hermoso! La portada muy bien diseñada con relieve y brillan las letras. No venía en bolsa pero no estaba maltratado. Para los fans esta excelente para ilustrar algunas de las escenas más importantes del libro
