Genre: Fantasy

Recommended to: 8-9-year-old children

Rating:5/5

 

Summary:

Claire is an ordinary schoolchild – until one day. Claire finds a letter asking her to travel to a strange place in Wales. She has to take Jack the dog, and she can tell nobody at all. Not even her mum.

 

Climbing steep mountains and facing her greatest fears, Claire must discover her hidden talents to protect a dangerous artefact, which, if in the wrong hands, could cause devastation. In this world of spies, lies and magic, who can Claire truly trust.

 

Why I liked this book:

I liked this book because there are a lot of word definitions in it. I learnt a whole heap of words. This is useful for people who are preparing for 11+ exams. Also, I liked the wording of the book. S.L. Ager reveals everything bit by bit. This makes the book much more interesting. I like the idea of making a gem be able to manipulate time too.
