Modern Fantasy


Artemis Fowl II is a twelve-year-old boy who believes he has found proof that fairies exist. With his friend, Artemis travels to another country to obtain the Fairy Holy Book, eventually also kidnapping a fairy. Artemis Fowl is the first book in the Artemis Fowl series, a collection of books perfect for young adults interested in modern fantasy. This book could be used in middle school classes to teach the differences between good and evil, or to focus on greed and how greed can lead to destruction. Colfer, Eoin. (2001). Artemis Fowl. Viking Press.
