About the book:
Percy Jackson’s seventh-grade year has been surprisingly quiet. Not a single monster has set food on his New York prep-school campus. But when an innocent game of dodgeball among Percy and his classmates turns into a death match against an ugly gang of cannibal giants, things get … well, ugly. And the unexpected arrival of Percy’s friend Annabeth brings more bad news: the magical borders that protect Camp Half-Blood have been poisoned by a mysterious enemy, and unless a cure is found, the only safe haven for demigods will be destroyed.
In this fresh, funny, and action-packed follow-up to The Lightning Thief, Percy and his friends must journey into the Sea of Monsters to save their camp. But first, Percy will discover a stunning new secret about his family- one that makes him wonder whether being claimed as Poseidon’s son is an honor or a curse.

I loved this book. I would also recommend the next book in the series, The Titan's Curse. I liked this series for many reasons. First, the text is very accessible to all students and most reading levels. It is action packed and highly engaging. Also, there is a nice connection to 7th grade geography for Ancient Greece. It glances over some mythology, but still helps bring history to life.
