Lightning Thief, Book 1 or
Percy Jackson, the Olympians.  by Rick Riordan

It's a
Bluebonnet Nominee; has a very few "bad words" in it.

This 375 page book is a real page turner--if you like fantasy.  The
gods of 
Olympus are STILL here and still interfering with mortal
affairs.  12 year 
old Percy (Perseus) Jackson finds that
dyslexia just means that his brain is 
hard-wired for ancient Greek,
and that ADHD is a survival skill--he is a 
natural at fighting with
swords....as he saves the world from a war the gods 
seem to be on
the verge of unleashing--though they really don't want a major 
war,
any more that sane humans.
