This is a short original chapter book, ideal for bedtime with plenty of natural breaks so the story can be continued another night. It is perfect for kids aged between 5 and 10, either as a bedtime story read by an adult, or by early and beginning readers to read by themselves, at any time of the day. It is written in a simple, easy to read, way that doesn't 'talk down' to them, because I want them to feel that they have left the 'baby' phase of their life behind.
Annie and her family go on a fun trip to the country to visit Uncle Chester at his farm. Annie is the most excited of all because Uncle Chester has a 'special' gift for her, now that she is seven years old. You can go on the trip with them and find out what happens when Annie finally takes possession of that special 'gift'. It might just turn out to be magical.
The emphasis of this book is on the story of Annie's adventure, not just the cute drawings that so many kid's story books rely on. It is for young minds that are ready to be filled with their own imagination. The next stage after books containing colorful pictures and a slim story line have ceased to be enough.
