Book 23

Hiiii..... its Delo. Penelope did not believe that the Beggar was Odysseus so she tested him. She said she moved the bed that he made out of an olive tree. Odysseus got really mad because he made that by himself. His outrage proved to Penelope that he was Oddyseus. They lived happily ever after.

Book 22

Hey its Guber. After winning the contest Odysseus and Telemachus force all the suitors into a hall way. With the help of Athena they kill all of the suitors and Odysseus went to see Penelope.

Book 21

Hey its Delo, we just landed in Ithica and Odysseus wants to go to see how everyone is doing. He dressed as a beggar so they didnt recognize him. He got into a contest and won by stringing his bow and shooting an arrow through 12 axe heads.

Book 12

Hey its Guber and we are hangin out down here in the underworld. We learned we are gonna run into Scylla and Charybdis. Scylla is a six headed monster with twelve feet and that kills one person for each head. Charybdis is a monster that sucks up the ocean then spits it out. Circes says to stay near Scylla so we only lose six men not the whole ship. After that we are going to Thrinacia where Helios keeps his cattle. If we eat the cattle Helios will get very mad.
