Publisher's Synopsis
Ages 7 to 9 years. For centuries, Oak Island, located off the shores of Nova Scotia, has been the centre of folklore involving a hidden treasure, but this story is not a typical treasure tale or pirate adventure. Instead, it focuses on the not-so-secret treasure that Oak Island offers: a delightful environment to play and daydream in, and an escape from the hustle and bustle of the real world. Illustrating that life's most valuable riches are often gifts from nature, this book teaches children the folly of placing too much value on material things. Organic pencil drawings and sketches help convey the richness of the environment and inspire kids to go out and look for the magic that surrounds them in nature.
