He needs to become strong and tanned and popular, like a Greek hero. Not weak and pale and unpopular, like a Greek yoghurt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut his bid for popularity ends up saddling him with a set of impossible tasks … like cleaning out the monster-riddled school pond, facing up to the school bully and finding the headmaster’s missing cat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen Herc’s charming, impressive birth dad turns up after years living in Greece, and Hercules thinks his problems are solved. With God-like strength and awe-inspiring powers, could his dad even be … the real Zeus?!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd will Hercules learn what it truly means to be a hero?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHercules: A Hero's Journey (on a School Trip)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eHercules Braver has a secret: he’s a real-life demigod! So, why does he seem so… ordinary?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost children of Zeus have some kind of superskill – like bravery, warrior skills or healing powers. Well, thanks to a wild boar (long story), Herc and his friends are off on a school trip to Greece. He’s bound to discover his gift there – and even meet more of the gods!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut after ending up neck-deep in horse poo, almost falling down a mountain and facing a fierce flock of ravens, this trip feels more like an epic voyage…\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat’s really going on with the mysterious gods, Athena, Apollo and Ares?

So, Herc’s life will no doubt be filled with GLORY. But what about FORTUNE?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s the school holidays and Herc has so many plans… sailing a yacht, going on a cruise, and generally touring the world slaying monsters. But Mum tells him they’re struggling to make ends meet, and the best she can manage is to send him to Young Explorers camp with his friend Pav. DISASTER!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow can Herc make money? Invent something amazing? Win the lottery? Become a tech billionaire? He’s on the case with Pav, Hatty and Natthew. But their schemes take them to some unexpected places… especially when vengeful Zeus finds out that Hercules and Mum might reveal his secret existence!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoon, Herc is facing the pranks of trickster god Hermes, rafting down a treacherous river, and dressing up as a donkey… Can he get his hands on the fortune he craves, or will he find that true riches lie in unexpected places? And can he and Mum finally get one over on the Greek Gods…?\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHercules vs the Minotaur\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eHercules is ready to start a new school year as the BEST demigod when, to his surprise, his cousin Theseus suddenly comes to stay from Greece. Theseus, son of Poseidon, is a young demigod just like Hercules. But right as Herc was (finally) preparing to be a heroically good role model, infuriating Theseus causes TROUBLE at every turn!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut soon the boys are forced to work together – because Zeus has been so focused on writing a book that he’s lost control of the cosmos… and now the universe is in jeopardy. One of the most terrifying monsters in Greek myth has hatched an escape from the underworld! With their dads pre-occupied, it’s up to Herc and Theo to track down and stop the Minotaur.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo doubt about it, this is Herc’s most high-stakes adventure yet. Will the boys become monster-slaying heroes like their namesakes? Or will they learn that myths might not have the full story?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Scholastic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57996280889731,"sku":"B2D8462","price":22.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0024\/6874\/1219\/files\/B2D8462.jpg?v=1778210835","url":"https:\/\/www.books2door.com\/products\/hercules-series-by-tom-vaughan-illustrated-4-books-collection-set-ages-8-12-paperback","provider":"Books2Door","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
