Hercules : A Hero's Journey (on a school trip)
Vaughan Tom
Scholastic
Hercules Braver has a secret: he's a real-life demigod! So, why does he seem so... ordinary? Most children of Zeus have some kind of superskill - like bravery, warrior skills or healing powers. Well, thanks to a wild boar (long story), Herc and his friends are off on a school trip to Greece.
He's bound to discover his gift there - and even meet more of the gods! But after ending up neck-deep in horse poo, almost falling down a mountain and facing a fierce flock of ravens, this trip feels more like an epic voyage... What's really going on with the mysterious gods, Athena, Apollo and Ares? And will Hercules discover what makes him special?
