Narration As Books Aphrodite the Diva (Goddess Girls #6)
These classic myths from the Greek pantheon are given a modern twist that contemporary tweens can relate to, from dealing with bullies like Medusa to a first crush on an unlikely boy. Goddess Girls follows four goddesses-in-training – Athena, Persephone, Aphrodite, and Artemis – as they navigate the ins and outs of divine social life at Mount Olympus Academy, where the most priviledged gods and goddesses of the Greek pantheon hone their mythical skills. In book 6, an exchange student from Egypt, Isis, is encroaching on Aphrodite's match-making turf. Will she also edge Aphrodite out of her group of friends?Details Containing Books Aphrodite the Diva (Goddess Girls #6)

Reviewed at: http://www.teachmentortexts.com/2012/...I am definitely going to read more of the Goddess Girls series. They are as fun as the covers are.

The Goddess Girls have friendship issues, boy trouble and even problems with schoolwork! Kids can definately relate. In Aphrodite the Diva, Aphrodite is failing Hero-ology and starts a "Lonely Hearts
