The Return to Deephaven

Beschreibung

Unicorn Fantasy for Kids A gripping fantasy-an exciting unicorn story-with elves, dwarves, unicorns and a brave heroine keen to face deadly dragons and evil tworns. For over two hundred years no one has dared attempt to enter the Deephaven caves-not since the two-headed, dragon-like tworns viciously attacked the dwarves who lived there and took the caves for their own. But since their overwhelming defeat at the Battle of the Snake everyone wants to know how many tworns are still alive. And there's only one way to find out-do what no one has chanced for decades-disregard common-sense and venture inside the caves. Armed with not much more than her dragon-dagger and her courage, Kinsey makes the journey with Crimson, the wise and insightful unicorn, ever beside her. The cave-hating but tworn-ready young dwarf, Anvil Treegrasper, reluctantly joins them. However, ferocious tworns are not the only danger in their path. An unlikely but cunning spell master has one thought on his mind-steal the Pendant of Peace worn around Kinsey's neck for his own deadly purposes. And he is closer than Kinsey could ever imagine, with a powerful black crystal full of evil enchantments that could destroy them all. An exciting juvenile fantasy featuring a strong female protagonist with a wise unicorn to guide her. Perfect for grade 3-5 (8-10 year olds), with an estimated lexile range of 610-760.

Autor

Karen Cossey writes children fiction for 5-12-year-olds. Her work includes short stories for 5-9 year-olds, fantasy books for 7-11-year-olds and mystery stories for 9-12-year-olds. She herself has always been an avid reader and firmly believes in the importance of asking questions and developing a child's imagination. She homeschooled her children for 5 years and enjoyed instilling a love of learning and reading into her son and daughter. Reading, to Karen, has three main aspects, one of the main ones being developing a connection with your child. When they are younger, the time spent reading together develops a special bond, but as the child grows in their reading ability, discussing plots and themes of the stories they are reading also strengthens parent-child connection. As an ex-homeschool mom, she knows the importance of reading for education and tries to integrate learning with reading by offering free worksheets on her website. Karen believes that reading foremost is about entertainment. If a storybook does not entertain, it has missed the essential ingredient from which connection springs and education can easily flow.Her recipe for an entertaining story is to bring some of the delight of family and friendship, the joy of living and the fire of imagination into her writing.
