This series is just a lot of fun. This beginning chapter book series introduces kids to the various gods and heroes of Olympus. It does it in such a way as to make them understandable and make it comedic. Demon whose full name is Pandemonium as is the son of Pan and it is his job to heal the various animals of Mount Olympus. This time it’s a dragon that has a bit of a tummy problem and literally stinks up the entire mountain. But fixing this dragons tummy problem is no small thing as Demon’s healing box is broken and there are other priorities to the gods which demons serves. My favorite part of this book and the series is the comedy. The god characters are so overdramatic, and Demon is the “I just want to do my job and not die type” of assistant. I’m only halfway through the series and I look forward to each new book.
