Her books are engaging and fun for everyone. Joan understands a brother and sister relationship very well and you can see it in her writing. She also understands the importance of friends and how they can help you in your time of need. I gave this book four out of five stars because the book was not the worst book ever and it wasn't the best book ever either.

I believe that the book was very well written and it showcased what happens when you make mistakes and have friends. I enjoyed the way Joan wrote the book. She added many details and made the book very interesting to read. When I read it I felt like I was there.

I really enjoyed how Joan wrote the book and I hope that you enjoy the book to.

The purpose of the petition was so Zeus would see that lots of students were in support of the Girls-Only Olympics. Other kids would enjoy this book because it is full of suspense and makes you want to keep turning the pages and read more. There is fun around every corner; you feel you are actually in the book with Artemis going through all the amazing stuff that she encountered! The Python-O-Thon was a new contest in the Olympics in which the competitors had to answer two tricky riddles posed by the biggest and trickiest serpent, the Parnassus Python.

Apollo had prepared for the contest diligently and outdid the Python with his wits. His prize was a temple in his honor! This book is special because it teaches you about Greek mythology set in modern times. Review by Young Mensan Roksanna K. Jun 28, Alex rated it really liked it Shelves: Artemis has always been extremely close to her twin brother Apollo, only that lately they have been a bit at odds. And now, Mount Olympus Academy is all a-buzz because of the Olympic Games, and Artemis would be excited too if not for the fact that, as a girl, she's not allowed to participate as the games are boy's only, which is simply not fair.

But Artemis is not one to suffer injustice quietly, so she and her friends Athena, Persephone and Aphrodite come up with a plan to right t At First Sight: But Artemis is not one to suffer injustice quietly, so she and her friends Athena, Persephone and Aphrodite come up with a plan to right this wrong. Artemis the Loyal is a great addition to the Goddess Girls series it's the 7th book but, as always, it can be read on it's own just as well.

Artemis isn't my favorite Goddess Girl, but I'm always surprised by how much I enjoy her books. I loved seeing more of her relationship with her brother in this book, seeing more of their bond. And I loved the solution she came up with about the Olympic Games. It was truly fair.

If I have a minor complaint is that the other goddesses really took a backseat in this story, and I thought they were less pressent than in other books of the series. Artemis the Loyal is a lovely book that made me grow to like Artemis more than I already did. I loved the message and the treatment of it. This is such a funny, sweet book. I admire you for that. Thanks," said Artemis, He was such a sweet boy. But no in a flashy way like Orion, her first crush, Sweet was way better than flashy, she decided" Feb 15, Elizabeth rated it liked it Shelves: I read this book in third quarter.

I loved this book because it was another book from the Goddess Girls Series and it had the point of view of one of my favorite Greek goddesses, Artemis. This book had thrills and chills that keeps through the end. The book makes everyone have their own times of when their brother made them look like a fool or maybe have had something you love, but could not do it. This was why I really liked this book a whole lot. This book is about the gods and goddesses a I read this book in third quarter.

This book is about the gods and goddesses at MOA that are getting ready for the greatest event of the year, the Olympics. Artemis is dying to just at least get one chance to play in them, but she is a girl which is against the rules. Her brother, Apollo, is not even backing her up on it and she is getting pretty worried about him since he keeps getting angry at her.

Principal Zeus lets the girls and boys compete in a game. This is why I really liked this book a whole lot. I do not say that unless I mean it a lot. Nov 28, zapkode rated it it was amazing Shelves: Artemis wants to help her twin Apollo as much as possible. She feels that it is her place to stand up for him. A lot goes on within the pages of this book. The main topic is the Olympic Games that are boy only.

It does allow for competition from other schools though. All of the boys at MOA train for these games and they end up getting offended when the girls want to take part in them as well. There are some new characters introduced, some new friendships made and some errors made.

I do think though that it was nicely written. I always enjoy reading these books because they help to teach the reader a lesson. As the title suggests the lesson in this particular book is about loyalty. If you are wanting to know more you will need to read the book, it is worth the time.

These books are perfect for children interested in Greek Mythology. They are perfect for children that just want to read a nice story. They are very well written, well thought out and they conclude nicely. I look forward to reading the next book in the series soon.

Nov 08, Daisy rated it it was amazing Shelves: This was a very enjoyable book. Definitely not my favourite in the series but I liked it. It seems to be becoming an occupational hazard with this series; in the first half of the book, I get seriously annoyed at all the characters and the story seems rubbish. But then in the second half - where all the problems begin to get solved - it's brill!

I mean Artemis had a crush in her first book - so it was boring to read about it again and anyway, it' This was a very enjoyable book. I mean Artemis had a crush in her first book - so it was boring to read about it again and anyway, it's not a good colour on her. It was just so sudden how she started to like him, and he wasn't described enough, he just never seemed to have a clear personality. His character kept changing throughout the book - so annoying. And the way that storyline ended was way too sudden and I didn't like it.

I totally loved Artemis's character in this one though. At first I thought Apollo was being all wrong and un-Apollo, but now I've read the entire book I'm glad he did what he did, and how the problem between him and Artemis was solved. I don't think the two giants' characters added much to the story, but I did like the way Artemis lured Ephialtes into the forest towards the end. I rated this five star because it was amazing, but I have to admit, it had it's problems.

I first discovered this series two years ago when I was in the sixth grade. Ever since then, I have read most of the books in the series. I like how the two authors put a mythological twist on realistic problems. It was a fun read. Even though the books in the series could be most popular for young people, I think people of all ages will enjoy it. Like me, two years later I'm in the eighth grade and I go to the library, see it on a shelf, and I instantly make a grab for it.

Even though my favori I first discovered this series two years ago when I was in the sixth grade. Even though my favorite books are chick-lit and romance. I still like to read these series to make me feel young again-in my condition two years younger. So this book was interesting and kept me reading. I even stopped studying for my test to finish this book. I saw the rating for how many stars this book got on Goodreads. So I guess a lot of people like this book, no matter what age. I liked the plot and how each book in the series centers around one of the main goddessgirls.

My favorite is Athena, but I like all the books. I feel like the authors really got the characteristic right and made it really fun and interesting. I liked how each ending to a chapter made me want to move on to the next. So all in all, I think this is a good book and will be very popular among many readers of all age.

It was the week of the Olympics at M. Artemis won the race but that makes Apollo mad and embarrassed that he was beaten by a girl, but Artemis didn't know why he was mad at her. Later during the practice games two giants came and were asking to join the olympic games. There was a huge fight over if they should join or not, but Zeus allowed them to join. Artemis, Athena, Persephone and Aphrodite thought it wasn't fair that the giants could join the games but the girls weren't even allowed one vent that they could participate in.

The goddess girls went through weeks of trouble to make an all girls Olympics, but Zeus never listens to others' ideas.

Goddess Girls

The day of the Olympics came and the girls were worried about the boys in the wrestling because the giants were in that event. Everyone found out that one of the giants didn't have good sportsmanship when he lost. Artemis snuck into the python's cage, but woke it up. She found out that the python could hypnotize you and read your mind.

It asked what Apollo's weakness which was that he can never tell a lie but it read her mind. On the day of the Pyth-o-thon Apollo tricked the python into a never ending answer that wasn't a lie and won the event.

Jul 14, Cathyl rated it really liked it. I think this is a loving story about Artemis and seeing what she does or thinks about certain things and certain situations. You come to understand her more. I learned that she would fight for what she believes in, help her brother even if he doesn't allow it, and have a crush on someone even though she not the "girly" type like Aphrodite. Artemis never gave up the idea of girls playing sports. She thought they should be.

So every time Zeus tries to discourage her, she would find another way to I think this is a loving story about Artemis and seeing what she does or thinks about certain things and certain situations. So every time Zeus tries to discourage her, she would find another way to get what she wants. Her brother, Apollo got mad at her because he thinks she's more bossy than helpful. So, she promised that she wouldn't help him anymore.

But after a few thoughts about her brother going against the Python, she risked pretty much her "life" trying to learn something that would help Apollo. And even though she is very sporty and awesome at archery, she still likes people.

See a Problem?

After her wrong decision with Orion, she learns that there are others out there and people who are better than Orion. She finds out that he's better than Orion. People with better personalities are always better than others who don't have the greatest ones. September , September 10, The second story from Artemis' perspective tells about Artemis' wish to participate in the Olympics. Since Zeus has declared that only boys can participate, the rule stays. Artemis tries different tactics to convince the MOA students that girls should have the right to participate in the Olympics.

But while this happens, her brother and Artemis get in an argument and she loses his support and perhaps even his loyalty? Ar "Artemis the loyal" by Joan Holub Read: Artemis has to try to succeed in starting Girls-only-Olympics with the support of the other Goddessgirls, while trying to reconnect with her brother and trying to stop him from entering the dangerous Python-o-lympics.

And if that's not all, she has to deal with giants and this boy who probably like her! The book was really short and it's easily read within a day. Two stars since I liked the story, but I'm not the targeted audience and it didn't do much for me. Apr 20, Faith rated it it was amazing. Artemis the Loyal is about a young goddess, named Artemis.

Dec 24, Linda Jaejoong rated it it was amazing Shelves: Apollo hat mir so leid getan, so eine Schwester zu haben ist wirklich schlimm.

Ich kann zu ihr als Charakter einfach keine Beziehung aufbauen. Sie ist mir zu unsympathisch. Die Handlung war sehr spannend, voller Action und mit einer guten Portion Humor. Mar 11, Sophie rated it really liked it Recommends it for: Meanwhile giants arrive at MOA their hearts set on competing and winning the Olymics. Being a girl myself I enjoyed this one. It was definitely good to have it written from Artemis' point of view.

At some points I did feel like kicking some of the boys but that just added to the story! There are a couple of storylines running along side each other in this book but they were all written well and they all ended well. The storyline with the giants was awesome and it was cool to see some different beings as all we have really seen so far are gods and mortals We meet a few new characters in this one or we see them develop a lot more including Acteon, Otus and Ephialtes.

I think my favourite part of this book has to be the part where Apollo faces the Python - the riddles were really cool.
