The Labors of Hercules Beal (eBook preview)



Presenting … First-chapter Friday, the eBook edition. This month’s selection features The Labors of Hercules Beal by Gary D. Schmidt.

Herc Beal’s homeroom teacher at his new middle school assigns Herc to duplicate the mythical Hercules’s amazing feats in real life. This book is a nominee, for 2025-2026, for the California Young Reader Medal in its “Intermediate” category. I am reading this eBook via the Libby app and I obtained it through Sacramento Public Library.
