Produktbeschreibung

The Enchanted Coin by Bob Doerr is a 31,000 word fantasy adventure targeted at Middle Grade readers. Imagine being a fourteen year old again and finding a coin that seems to give off a light of its own. The coin has your name on it, and instructs you to toss it into a fountain next to the Tree of Life. That's what happens in The Enchanted Coin, and what starts my protagonist off on a magical adventure that many young boys and girls would love to have. This book is "G" rated.

Fourteen year old Greg Worling's life changed the day he found an eight sided coin along the edge of a pond on his parent's farm. The coin sparkled as though it reflected the sun's light even in the shade. Drawn to it, Greg discovers an inscription on the coin that read, "Greg, drop this coin into the fountain in front of the tree of life." Weeks later, his little sister by his side, Greg tosses the coin into the small fountain and is instantaneously transported to a strange land.

Alone and confused, before Greg can get his bearings, a young girl in strange clothing literally falls out of the hillside underbrush and knocks them both to the ground. She tells him that she is being chased by warriors of the Denza tribe who will kill her on sight. Greg hides her from her pursuers and learns that she is Fawn, a princess of the Cheerakoo people. She has a proclamation from the King that will settle a land dispute with another tribe, the Denza. The Denza will stop at nothing to prevent the proclamation from reaching the homelands of the Cheerakoo.
