Little Olympians: Artemis, the Archer Goddess
Artemis is taking on the patriarchy of Olympus! Artemis is proud of her accomplishments, but when the Eureka News covers the latest happenings on Mount Olympus, the headline of the archery article STILL focused on Apollo and his focus in meeting the challenge, even though Artemis won! Apollo and Artemis have a history of a sibling rivalry where Apollo is often boastful and Artemis is taught by their parents to be gracious and complimentary to her brother rather than prideful when she is successful. All of these big feelings spill over and Artemis stands up for what she knows is right. Along the way, the gods and goddesses learn to try new things that challenge them to seek improvement in areas where they might not be naturally talented. It can be hard to see failure as an opportunity to try again but Hestia and Hermes both learn that overcoming obstacles can be an awesome growing experience! Artemis helps to challenge the gods and goddesses to think differently about what it means to be great.
