Lost gold. Ancient symbols. Queen Elizabeth 1st's forgotten palace. And, of course, two very determined treasure- hunting children. Perfect for children aged 7-12. When Little Spirit and his friend, Eliza, visit Ashridge House and learn the story of the Abbot's Gold, they're desperate to see the stained-glass windows said to hold clues to find it. Maxie, the flamboyant, cloaked tour guide, dismisses the story as mere folklore, but when Little Spirit finds a strange symbol etched into a well, he's convinced he's onto something. But the race is on to decipher the clue and escape the estate manager, children-loathing Mr Scripps. Is there gold to be found? And who will get there first? Book four in the series is set at the stunning Ashridge House, a vast palace lived in by Queen Elizabeth 1st when she was growing up, and based on a true story of lost gold and clues to its location hidden in the stained glass windows of the chapel. Ideal for fans of Enid Blyton's mystery adventures, the Adventures on Trains Series, The Adventurers and those who enjoy the plot twists and turns of the Harry Potter books. Praise for Little Spirit 'I loved this book. It really kept me in suspense the whole way through. There was a rollercoaster of excitement on each page. The description is so good that it really lets you experience the character's surroundings. I couldn't put it down.' Reviewer, age 9 'Little Spirit's character is both brave and adventurous and it is because of this that I was drawn in so quickly and wanted to read on. It sparked so much in my imagination, making it a great read from start to finish.' Reviewer, age 10 'The book was lovely and exciting. It made me want to read on. The characters had great personalities and when bad things happen there is hope.' Reviewer, age 7 'I thought the story was very heart-warming, and I really wanted to see what happened, so I kept reading after mummy told me to turn off the light at bedtime! I'd definitely recommend it!' Reviewer, age 10 Series order: Book 1 - Little Spirit Book 2 - Little Spirit at the Castle Book 3 - Little Spirit and the Shadow Soldier >The books can be read as stand-alone stories but to fully appreciate the journey of Little Spirt, a Guatemalan refugee, they are better read in order. The books are formatted in sans serif font, suitable for dyslexic readers and have slightly larger text font to aid the ease of reading which is especially useful for those children moving from illustrated chapter books to full text novels. The main themes explored in these books are courage, friendship and that kindness is a superpower. About the Author >If you'd like an exciting mystery adventure for kids, grab yourself a copy!
