Over 25 years in the writing, Stargazer is a beautifully told story of magic, wonder and healing told through the eyes of a class of school children and their teacher. A tale that reminds us that anything is truly possible, Stargazer captures the heart and imagination as it recounts the life-changing adventure of a fluffy yet surprising intergalactic hero.
illustrations by Sharon McLeod OLike many people my age, I spent my childhood reading books like THE MAGIC FARAWAY TREE, the FAMOUS FIVE, the SECRET SEVEN and the ADVENTURES OF THE WISHING CHAIR E true classics loved by millions of kids all over the world, written by one woman D Enid Blyton. I donOt know how else to describe the energy of STARGAZER, a simple heart-felt story told with such love and dedication, except to say that it reminds me warmly of EnidOs books. The simplicity, innocence and the underlying message D itOs just all so charming and captivating. Patricia Olsson has done what many authors try to do, but fail. SheOs captured old world charm, mixed it up with a touch of fantasy and mystery - and presented it all in a modern format for real children. With all the knowledge and spiritual understanding bombarding our kids today, itOs so refreshing to find an author who actually knows what it means to inspire a childOs imagination. This book is a classic D and itOs only just been released. An old fashionedO childrens story book, infused with all the wisdom and magic our kids need to inspire gentleness and beauty in todayOs too-fast moving, technological world.
