Monica, I'm not a great reader of fantasy, so I don't know if these novels are really more of what your girls have been enjoying. But my own favorite takes on the Greek gods are probably Till We Have Faces by C.S. Lewis and Mary Renault's historical-fantastical novels, of which The King Must Die is one of my top ten of all time. I forget what grade you teach, but all are probably readable by a very precocious fifth or sixth grader. The King Must Die has naughty bits.
