Four delightful tales make up the book, each based on author Marion Gillcrest’s grandchildren, who visit faraway places and must use their wits to battle buccaneers and medieval villains.
In her unforgettable book, Adventures of My Grandchildren, Gillcrist, or “Oma” as she is called by the children, imagines them in the most unusual places.
The story “Ransom” takes Marie and Erin to Colorado, where they survive a kidnapping in the mountain wilderness. Hanna and Joe must break a secret code to search for pirate treasure in “The Piece of Eight.” Liam, Jacob, Thomas, Lily and Olivia explore a spooky Rhode Island haunted house in “The Watson Place.” And in the final story, “Coeur de Lion,” Ellie, Georgia, Danny and Isabel rescue King Richard the Lion Heart from a dungeon in Austria.
Over time and space, Gillcrist captures a child’s wonderment at meeting the unknown, while learning valuable life lessons along the way.
