Reviews for The Lost Stone
8 ratings4 reviews
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Fantastic example of a first chapter book for young readers: engaging black/white drawings to support the story, large typeface, short chapters and a interesting story with a not-to-complicated plot. The fantasy/magic genre and with a boy-girl best friend team adds to the charm.First book in The Kingdom of Wrenly series.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The magic, adventure and friendship made the book really really good.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5We are 6 year old twins and we loved it! Yay!
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I liked this book for a couple reasons. First, I like the simple manner in which it is written. This would be a good book for a developing reader. Secondly, I like that the writing is descriptive and clear. The story has a magic fairytale element that I also enjoyed. The message of the story is that it is important to have friends and not to look down on people.

The Lost Stone - Jordan Quinn
A Secret Mission
Prince Lucas raced up the spiral stone staircase in the castle to his bedroom. He kneeled on the floor and then pulled a pile of clothes out from under his bed. There was a pair of worn trousers, a shabby shirt, a felt hat, scruffy leather boots, and a wool cloak.

And that was the problem. Lucas had grown bored of being a prince. Most kids would think, He must be CRAZY!

Lucas even had his very own horse, named Ivan. But there was one thing the prince did not have. . . .
Friends. Lucas wanted a friend more than anything in the world.
He’d had a friend once—a pretty, green-eyed girl named Clara Gills. Clara’s mother, Anna, made dresses for Lucas’s mother, Queen Tasha. Anna always brought Clara when she came to the castle. Clara and Lucas had played hide-and-seek and twirled on the swings in the royal playroom. But not anymore. Lucas’s father, King Caleb, had forbidden it. He had said a proper prince does not play with village children. Lucas had cried until his nose got stuffy. So day after day Lucas watched the village children walk to and from school. Sometimes they stopped at
