A wonderful review by one of my favourite kid book reviewers. This made my day.
Amanda in Alberta: The Writing on the Stone
By Darlene Foster
156 pages – ages 8+
Published by Central Avenue Publishing on July 11, 2014
Amanda is back in an all-new adventure, but this time, it’s on her turf! Leah (Amanda’s friend) has come all the way from England to visit Amanda in her province of Alberta, Canada. Everything goes well, until a rodeo clown drops a strange stone. Amanda picks it up, and tries to return it to the clown, but she was too late – he was gone. The stone was round and had a marking on it. Suddenly, people seem to be wanting the stone urgently, although their purposes may be unclear – and maybe even dangerous!
This is a marvelous book, one that made me feel like I was there with Amanda and Leah. Ms. Foster really has a way of taking you through the landmarks…

You made it sound very interesting. I will put it on hold at the library.


Sounds like a really interesting book and I’m from Alberta as well. Where can we find your book? I’m visiting from the #kidlitbloghop today.


Sounds like the great beginning of an adventure! Thanks for sharing with #KidLitBlogHop!
