Artemis the Brave Joan Holub

Brief Description: While protecting egotistical transfer student Orion, Artemis makes a mistake that later provides her with the chance that she has both hoped for and dreaded, to prove her courage to herself and others at Mount Olympus Academy. Publisher Marketing: Goddess Girl Artemis confronts her fears--and faces her first crush! Artemis is known for being the most courageous girl at Mount Olympus Academy. Little do her friends and classmates know that, even though she's fearlessly awesome at archery, the creatures they learn about in Beast-ology class--such as the ring-nosed Minotaurs and scorpions--scare her as much as they frighten everyone else! But what is scaring her even more are her growing feelings for Orion: She's never had a crush before! Will she find the courage to talk to Orion "and" ace her Beast-ology class? Review Citations:
