Twelve-year-old Meddy Gordon has serious anger issues.
In this hilarious book for middle-grade readers, Meddy
rants about family and friendships, using her diary as a way
of letting out her anger and keeping her emotions in check.
So far, so normal. You know the kind of thing: frustrations with
her self-absorbed sisters; problems with idiotic classmates; disagreements
with pompous teachers; and, of course, her troubles
dealing with the occasional flock of owls, swarms of snakes, or even
the odd many-headed dog.
And then there's the small problem of the snake hair that appears
if she doesn't control her anger...
You see, Meddy Gordon is not actually from the twenty-first century.
She is, in fact, a human from ancient Greece and she has made
a powerful enemy.
Meddy G is MEDUSA and she just happens to have angered Athena,
the goddess of war. And what happens when the goddess of war is
on the warpath? You get a bad day. A very bad day indeed.
Meddy Gorgon is loosly based on the famous Greek myth of Medusa,
ideal for young fans of Greek mythology!
A highly illustrated book, great for fans of Hercules: the
Diary of a (sort of) Hero and Lottie Brooks.
Funny and fantastic illustrations by Katie Abey who has illustrated
over fifty books for children.
