Crystal's Quest is both educational and inspiring. </p><p><em> Margaret Ann Lembo, author of The Essential Guide to Crystals, Minerals and Stones</em></p><p><br></p><em>"Many children love rocks, and this book provides a fun entrée into the topic."</em><p>The book's design features shimmery gemstone-inspired pinks, greens, and purples, sure to delight young readers. It also has engaging illustrations and a playful typeface, with various words featured larger than others in a colorful font. The rock fact sheets are also visually appealing, with interesting tidbits. Many children love rocks, and this book provides a fun entrée into the topic. It also promotes the importance of listening to those around you and connecting with your community.</p><p> <em>BlueInk Review </em></p><br><em>"Will definitely engage reluctant readers as well as those who love to read."</em><p>I love the concept; some kids around here are absolutely fascinated with gemstones, and I think it's great that you introduce the benefits of gemstones and crystals. The layout of the book is super eye catching and will definitely engage reluctant readers as well as those who love to read. With that said, the Uxbridge Public Library would love to have your book as a part of our collection. I will include it in next month's Ingram order.</p><p> <em>Lindsey Centrella, Assistant Director & Youth Services, Uxbridge Public Library, Uxbridge, MA</em></p><br><em>"We loved the book and especially the rock samples."</em><p>We loved the book and especially the rock samples. The samples really helped make the story and lessons tangible. The way the story blends emotional/developmental challenges/adventures that any child can relate to with the healing powers of the rocks and the geological facts of the rocks was so refreshing and appealing to my daughter. Even at 11, children learn best through story and adventure, not lists of facts and not scientific writing. The fact that she also has beagle made it all the more appealing.</p><p><em> Dawn Robinette, homeschool mom</em></p><p><br></p><em>"I will carry this book in my product line."</em><p>Crystal's Quest is a fun read from beginning to end. Crystal and her pet beagle, Noodle meet numerous animal characters on the many adventures they share. Each of their animal friends is in need of support, and Crystal uses her knowledge of gemstones to find the perfect stone to help them. This book offers children a practical way to discover how stones can be used to assist them when they are facing challenges. I will carry this book in my product line.</p><p><em> Eva Goulette, Dancing Jaguar's Spirit Camp</em></p><br>
