Invited on a treasure hunt, will this poor-but-courageous kid discover the quest of a lifetime? Amen thirsts for the unknown. Happily skipping through the market each morning, the young child delights in the merchants' stories of dangerous, far-off journeys and perilous trips across the sea. But the adventurer never dreamed that a mysterious old man would offer a chance at a grown-up trek into an ancient cave on the trail of hidden rubies. Squirming into a passageway too small for an adult, Amen tries to ignore growing worries and focus on following the directions on the map. But after seizing the gems, the almost-ten-year-old stumbles into a magical trap far from home. Can Amen fight through jungles, pirates, and enchanted castles to find a storybook ending? On My Way Home is a charming middle grade adventure story. If you or your child like brave travelers, fantastic settings, and surprising twists, then you'll love Joseph Trencher's magnificent fable.
