  10. Model Paragraph • Percy Jackson, the main character in The Lightning Thief, is following the path of the hero in “The Hero’s Journey.” Percy Jackson is a boy who is not accepted by many people around him. In “The Hero’s Journey” it says that heroes “possess some ability or characteristic that makes them feel out-of-place.” In The Lightning Thief, Percy says, “I have dyslexia and attention deficit disorder and I had never made about a C- in my life.” In this quote, Percy expresses his feelings of exclusion because of his learning differences. This shows that Percy is like the archetype of a hero because he also has characteristics that make him feel out of place.
