Amazing book! Best YA fiction I've read in years. I am a middle school librarian, and I could never have enough of these to meet the huge demand, even though I bought seven copies! It is great for lessons on political science, plant biology, Greek and Roman mythology and history. After reading them in English, I reread them all in Spanish. I started a Spanish/English book club and the kids were so excited about reading it; many were reluctant readers.I was very lucky to be invited to a breakfast with Suzanne Collins in which she read from the book.
