Odyssey #1

So far in the book Odysseus has been traveling all over the world with his crew trying to make it back to their home in Ithaca. After the Trojan War, with the victory by Odysseus and his men hiding in the trojan horse, they sailed to Cicones to get there reward where they got too greedy and will be punished by the Gods. They have encountered many people so far like Hermes, Athena, Polyphemus, Circe, and several others. Odysseus has battled many people tribes things, on several different islands, lands, and surfaces. But, he has still survived just on the will to go home to Ithaca to see his lovely wife Penelope. I think that this is really cool how Odysseus and his crew travel everywhere to make it back home and all the interesting people and things they see. I like the book in general so far as well because I have already read parts of the book in sixth grade and I wanted to continue. Even though it is written in somewhat of a wierd way, I like it none the less and hope that it continues to stay this way until the end of our unit with the book.
