    About this ebook

    Jeremy should be at home eating his supper. Instead he has traveled through time with a cat named Aristotle to Mount Olympus, home of the Greek gods. Neither he nor Aristotle has any idea how to get home, let alone how to help Mr. Magnus lift Zeus's curse on his theater, where no play has been performed for years. Not knowing what else to do, Jeremy and Aristotle climb toward the summit, finding adventure all the way.

      Jeremy and the Enchanted Theater - Becky Citra

      Chapter One

      The Enchanted Theater

      First he had to run past the house where the mean boy lived. Then he had to run past the house where the big dog with fangs lived.

      He shivered. He got ready to run.
