Percy's mother is named Sally Jackson. Her parents died in a plane crash, when she was five. Sally had to go live with her uncle. Her uncle got sick when she was in school and Sally had to drop out. The only luck Sally ever had was meeting Percy's dad. Percy did not remember his dad. Percy only remembered the barest trace of his father's smile. Percy's mom and dad were not married. His father was rich and important. The relation ship between Sally and Percy's father was a secret. Percy's mom told him that his father was not dead, just lost at sea. Sally married a man named Gabe Ugliano, who is a world class jerk. When Percy returned home, after ditching Grover, he hoped his mother was home, but he walked into see Gabe home and was playing poker with his buddies. He treated Percy as he normally did, awful. Percy went to his room, and then his mom came home. She came to see Percy and and told him that they were going to Mantuk, which is a beach. The first night was magical and disorderly. Percy and his mother talked about his father and how Mantuk is the place where they met. The disorderly part is that Grover showed up at the Jackson's house in Mantuk. Except it was not Grover. Grover had a normal human body, but his legs were replaced with goats legs. Grover was so angry at Percy, but he had to get Percy and his mother out of their beach home because they were in grave danger.
A person who would like this chapter would be a person who likes to be titillated. This person would probably be Alex Johnson. Alex likes how books, or movies can end in cliff hangers because it always leaves her wanting to either read the next book, or watch the next movie. Also Alex is very intelligent and can follow a story line, so she is good at asking her self question and keeping her brain sharp while reading a story. This was such an insane chapter in The Lighting Thief, and I need to read the next chapter before bed time!
