Explanation 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.

I really missed this series. The stories are so silly and fun, butI 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.
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 big HA , HA again . Which is the usual for this author . This time the three time travelers are stuck on Mount Olympus telling jokes to the Greek gods and goddesses to stall from being killed . And as usual Joe's blue time warp book can't be found . The mount Olympusgroup is attacked by Typhon , Cerberus , Medusa and Cyclops ; Sam plays his fake lyre from the school play to calm the beasts down . It works . . . momentarily .
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.
This is a cute adventure book for kids! The three boys travel to the Greek times. They interact with the Greek Gods and monsters.
The Time Warp Trio is back for an Olympiad adventure. This wasn't the best TWT book my son and I have read, but it still was great fun.
