Led by Artemis, Athena, Persphone andAphrodite, the ladies of Mount Olympus hatch a plan to get Zeus to openup the games to everyone. Will they succeed--or end up watching from the sidelines again?These classic myths from the Greek pantheon are given a modern twist that contemporary tweens can relate to, fromdealing with bullies like Medusa to a first crush on an unlikely boy.Goddess Girls follows four goddesses-in-training - Athena, Persephone,Aphrodite, and Artemis - as they navigate the ins and outs of divinesocial life at Mount Olympus Academy, where the most priviledged godsand goddesses of the Greek pantheon hone their mythical skills.
