About Artemis the Loyal:
It's time for the annual Olympic Games, and the four goddessgirls are not happy--especially Artemis. Even though she's better at sports than most of the godboys, she can't compete because rules say the Games are boys-only. No fair! Led by Artemis, Athena, Persephone and Aphrodite, the ladies of Mount Olympus hatch a plan to get Zeus to open up the games to everyone. Will they succeed--or end up watching from the sidelines again?
“…a clever take on Greek deities…” ~ Booklist
"Readers familiar with Greek myths should get a kick out of this plucky restaging." ~Publisher's Weekly
“…an enchanting mythological world with middle-school woes compounded by life as a deity…” ~ School Library Journal
Series scoop:
Athena the Brain Finding out she’s a goddess and being sent to Mount Olympus brings Athena new friends, a weird dad, and the meanest girl in mythology—Medusa!

Persephone the Phony Hiding her feelings works fine for Persephone until she meets a guy she can be herself with—Hades, the bad-boy of the Underworld.
Aphrodite the Beauty Sure Aphrodite is beautiful, but it’s not always easy being the goddessgirl of love.
Artemis the Brave She may be the goddess of the hunt, but that doesn’t mean Artemis always feels brave.
Athena the Wise Zeus says Heracles has to do twelve tasks or he'll get kicked out of MOA! Although she's not sure it's wise, Athena agrees to help out.

Aphrodite the Diva Isis claims she's the goddess of love? Ha! But to keep the title all to herself, Aphrodite has to find the perfect match for Pygmalion, the most annoying boy ever.
NEW! Artemis the Loyal It’s time for the annual Olympic Games, and Artemis and her friends are not happy. It’s boys only. Not fair! (Dec.6, 2011)
Medusa the Mean When Medusa discovers an ad for a necklace that promises immortality, this looks like her best shot at becoming popular and having her supercrush, Poseidon, finally notice her. Can this "meanie" get what she wants and also prove that there's more to her that meets the eye? (Apr. 2012)

Hi Booklady! Children’s Book Week is a wonderful celebration. Thanks for thinking of Goddess Girls for your students. CBW is May 7-13 this year. I read that David Wiesner is creating the poster. Fun!
Jess, hi! That is wonderful to hear. Yay!!!
Hi Heidi, you’re welcome. I love seeing the GGs in libraries, especially when I find that they are all or mostly checked out. :o) I recently heard that books 1 & 2 (Athena the Brain and Persephone the Phony) will be reprinted in a library hardback edition in 2012.
Hi Susan, thanks so much for your kind words!
Angela, thank you! And I completely agree about the covers. Glen Hanson is the cover artist and he is amazing. Fast and creative. His covers jump off the bookstore shelves.
Thanks, Gabrielle! I hope they enjoy them. Tell them hi from Suzanne and me.
You’re welcome, Kayla. Thanks for finding me in the blog hop!
Hi littleangel and Valette, thank you both for coming by my blog and commenting today!
Marie! So good to see you. Please tell your daughter hi! xox
Good luck to you all in the Best of 2011 blog hop giveaways. Happy holidays!
Thank you so much for the excellent giveaway. I had one of this series and lost it when I lost my home back in May in the tornado. I would love to get another for my granddaughter and I to read.
