But before we go . . .

Okay. We have just been reading Percy Jackson again. Books so exciting I often want to take a nap when we are done reading. The reading re-kindled Evie's interest in all things Greek. So, Mt. Olympus showed up in our living room today. I wish I could show each drawing up close, maybe in another post. They are amazing. I would also like to post our browsing history for yesterday as it took us to Wikipedia to look at Bottecelli, to sites about Greek numbering systems, Greek architecture etc. etc. Percy even has his own site-oh my goodness!.

Fun! I love the detail of the drawings!

My boys recently discovered Spartacus, and have been very into the Romans, the Wooden Sword, and all the details. So much interesting stuff to learn about!
