Description Supposing Books It's All Greek to Me (Time Warp Trio #8)

We had been steadily working our way through the Time Warp Trio series and then we somehow took some long breaks. I'm not sure why, especially since this book has a Greek mythology theme and our girls have been gaga over that subject for the last year or so. I guess it's just a matter of too many books and not enough time to read them all. In any case, after a seven-month hiatus, I thought it was high-time that we start in again. I really missed this series. The stories are so silly and fun, but a little educational too. The boys always seem to get into danger and/or big trouble, but of course, they always find a way to get the book and get home.

This is an entertaining book about the Greek gods and goddesses. It is helpful to have a foundation on each of the gods and goddesses and some of the stories prior to reading this book as the story doesn't teach about them, but the characters and storyline are fun. For example, the story of Sisyphus is alluded to in one sentence, but not explained, and without already knowing that story, we wouldn't have understood the reference. Overall, it's a fairly typical book for the series, filled with silliness and a little dangerous drama. We really enjoyed reading it together and look forward to the next book in the series.

Criticism Of Books It's All Greek to Me (Time Warp Trio #8)

Joe, Fred and Sam are about to go on stage to perform their Greek play when they are transported back to Mount Olympus. Here they meet Zeus and the other gods of Greek mythology who behave much as the characters in their play. And that's not a good thing.

The Time Warp Trio are 3 elementary school aged boys who travel into history, books, or, in this case, mythology by means of a magic book. This series is a great one for 8-10 year old boys with its focus on humor and adventure, but it also appealed to my eight-year-old daughter. These books are a good way to get kids reading about history and other subjects while keeping them entertained. There are many more in the series that I'm sure my family will enjoy. I think we'll even try reading them to

This is a cute adventure book for kids! The three boys travel to the Greek times. They interact with the Greek Gods and monsters.

These books are so funny!I like that the boys get pulled into a Greek pastthat has to do with the play they created!Monsters? A good idea in a play, but not in real life!Makes it even funnier.Love all the tricks in this one too.

I chose this because the description was funny. I really like this book. It has a lot of Greek mythology in a way that was easy to understand. I enjoyed the humor in the book as well.

I absolutely loved this book and my students would too. I enjoyed how the characters used a book to blast to the past into ancient Greek times. The imagination used in this book really made it a fun book to read. I would have students read this book to practice comprehending what they read.

Scieszka provides excellent information about all of the Greek Gods and many of the monsters smoothly woven into this story starring Joe, Fred and Sam, the Timewarp Trio. The boys find themselves facing Cerberus, the three-headed guard dog of the Underworld after being transported from their school play about Greek Mythology by a magical book. They use their wits and humor to charm both monsters and gods alike. Great fun with wonderful details from Greek Mythology! Very easy, quick read.
