August 18th, 2023 is known as Percy Jackson's birthday as in the books it is said to be his birthday! We were so glad that we had the opportunity to celebrate this day with all of you! We asked if anyone was willing if they were up for doing a special shout out either to Percy or to the book. And we were not disappointed! Below you can see all those who participated, and what they shared!
I hope you find out how to turn yourself blue!
Happy Birthday Percy!!!

out of everything in the musical --- which i adore as it was what helped me get the incentive to read the books as a kid irl ( i never understood how to like, actually read a series growing up so i always was confused, i am aware of how stupid this sounds ), i feel like good kid is like, such a raw and amazing depiction of him, it just was like my first experience connecting with the character and i'm so glad it was.
i sincerely recommend the musical to those who haven't seen it, it's on youtube for free if you search percy jackson musical ~ Aimee Applebaum
As Percy Jackson says in the Lightning Thief musical, “We could fail but we have to try. Don’t feel bad ‘cause we’re usually about to die. Bring on the monsters!” ~ Windsor Rey
My favorite thing about Percy Jackson is that he is unapologetically himself - he knows that he isn't perfect, and he isn't sorry about it! Happy, happy birthday, Percy, I hope that you'll one day have a break from all of this demigodly stuff! ~ Brielle Castillion
Happy birthday to my favorite hero and demigod, Percy Jackson! Here are some my favorite lines from him:
”We are staying together,” he promised. ”You’re not getting away from me. Never again.” (The Mark of Athena)
”I’m nobody’s sidekick,” Annabeth growled. “And, Percy, his accent sounds familiar because he sounds like his mother. We killed her in New Jersey.”
Percy frowned. “I’m pretty sure that accent isn’t New Jersey. Who’s his—? Oh.” It all fell into place. Aunty Em’s Garden Gnome Emporium—the lair of Medusa. She’d talked with that same accent, at least until Percy had cut off her head. “Medusa is your mom?” he asked. “Dude, that sucks for you.” (The Mark of Athena) ~ Sophie Pierce
