Parents: Popular book series gets kids excited about summer reading

(BPT) - If you want your kids to spend more time this summer away from screens and delving into books, start with the beloved Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan. By engaging kids in this tried-and-true series you know they'll love, you're ensuring they'll have many hours of reading pleasure ahead of them, all summer long. The Percy Jackson series recently celebrated its 20th anniversary, demonstrating its long-running popularity with kids aged 8-12 years.

To help inspire kids to enjoy more summer reading, Disney Hyperion's "Get Ready with Me for Camp Half-Blood" summer reading campaign will be providing exciting resources and new content about Percy Jackson for young readers on social media, and on the Disney Books and Read Riordan websites.
