Have you ever been in a situation being at a life or death? Rather it being in a game or sometimes in real life. Percy Jackson in the book The Lightning Thief by “Rick Riordan,” is a 12 year old kid going to a school called Yancy academy and has a best friend named Grover. Grover is like a brother to him because they basically to every together. They go to the same school, when it comes to going to vacation, Grover has to come with him, and I think you get it that Grover goes a lot of places with Percy. Percy Jackson has a lot of problems but yet still has a lot of friends.
Percy has some problems with his family to sometimes like his dad doesn’t live with him because Percy doesn’t know that his dad is a God. His mom told him that his dad died. His dad is one of the Gods that have powers like water, fire, earth, air and all the other ones but his dad has the water power. The book’s point of view is coming from Percy because he is the main character along with Grover and Percy’s mom, but mostly Percy is the main character. The point of view coming from Percy Jackson is a big part of the book because if the point of view was switched to Grover or Percy’s mom, the book would not make much sense because the reader reading the book at the time would not understand why Percy went to the underground. The main conflict of this book is Zeus’s master bolt was stolen and they are trying to find it before it gets in the wrong hands and something really bad happens.
If Rick Riordan had not made the point of view coming from Percy Jackson, the book would totally be difficult to understand what is going on. If the point of view was coming from Percy’s mom or even better, coming from Percy’s stepdad that would make the book have no sense to it what so ever. The reader reading the book at the time, would not understand why Percy to go to the underworld. If the point of view was coming from Percy’s mom, the read would probably here things like why he was going to the underworld but not know what was going on. For all she knows, Percy could have died going to the underworld and she would not have known that he died and that is an important fact that the read should know.
Throughout the book, Percy Jackson gets into a lot of trouble with people and monsters but yet stills believe in him to succeed. Knowing that the point of view is coming from Percy Jackson also the main character, he is just about telling everything that is going on to let to reader know more and more facts on what is happening. More facts for the reader means that the reader wants to keep reading and eventually wants to read the rest of the series. Then when the reader is done reading all of the books, that reader would recommend the book to friends and then lots of people would like the book. Anyways, the thing is that I would not had change the point of view it is coming from now because this person that the point of view is coming from is the main character and also tells lots on what is going on.
