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.
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)
NEW! Medusa the Mean  Medusa wants to be more like her two sisters and the other kids at Mount Olympus Academy -- immortal. Is that too much to ask?  (Apr. 2012)
The Girl Games (Goddess Girls Super Special) The first-ever stand-alone superspecial in the Goddess Girls series—let the games begin! The Goddess Girls get their chance to host the Girl Games! Told in alternating points of view, this superspecial is packed with Olympic spirit! July 2012

Thanks for visiting my blog during the Children's Book Week Giveaway Hop

One winner will receive an autographed
hardcover picture book
illustrated by New York Times bestselling Tom Lichtenheld.
Three winners will receive Zero the Hero & Goddess Girls bookmarks.


Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nada. That's what the other numbers think of Zero.
But he'll prove he's a hero!
“This tale not only reinforces mathematical principles, but also has a great message about friendship and personal feelings. It can be read aloud, alone, or performed as reader’s theater.”
--School Library Journal
“Read this aloud to whet the new reader’s appetite, but there is just so much to see that only a slow reading, with a magnifying glass in hand, will do.”
--Horn Book Magazine
"A hero and some villains and good winning over evil (oh, and all that educational stuff, too), all wrapped in humor and tied with a comic bow—what could be better?" 
--Kirkus Reviews


DO ONE OF THESE TO ENTER:
• Tweet, blog, or Facebook announcing the release of my hardcover picture book illustrated by NYTimes bestselling Tom Lichtenheld, Zero the Hero. Or LIKE on my Zero the Hero Facebook page. More than one entry is appreciated but not mandatory.
