The Quest for the Golden Bracelet

Beschreibung

On his twelfth birthday, Oshry prepares to set out on the traditional quest to become an adult in the coal colony: the quest for the golden bracelet. This tradition is sacred to the potters, small forest creatures who live in hollow trees. The trek to the floating island, where the golden bracelets are made, brings Oshry through other potter communities and confronts him with an unspoken rule that forbids friendships between colonies. Balsam, a young potter from the maple colony who is also on her quest, finds this rule a bit silly and tags along with a reluctant Oshry. But as they travel together, they begin to hear rumours of the mistreatment of potters on the floating island. By the time they reach the island, both feel uncomfortable accepting the traditional bracelet, but what can they do?

Autor

Jasmine grew up in Norland, Ontario, Canada. She graduated from Heritage College and Seminary in Cambridge, Ontario with a Bachelor of Religious Education. One of her passions is skiing and she is a certified Level 2 ski instructor with the Canadian Ski Instructors' Alliance. Jasmine enjoys being in the mountains, reading, playing soccer, and traveling. When asked to pick one ideal day, she couldn't. Doing the same thing over and over again would get boring. So, three ideal days would be these: Waking up late, slowly sipping coffee all morning, while reading a great novel. Going for an afternoon walk, making up a song on the guitar, then curling up with that novel again in the evening. Teaching skiing all morning, then having a few runs to yourself. In the afternoon, heading to her favourite coffee shop to write that story that has kept her awake for nights on end. Being in the mountains, skiing or hiking. Coming home at the end of an adventurous day, and eating a meal with some great friends.
