Open your imagination and get swept into the adventure. A brother and sister find a golden pinecone in the woods which enables them to communicate with animals and fairies. Their dog Ooshka becomes their guide as they must return the magical pinecone to the valley of Tekontha. Many adventures come their way. Flavoured with native indian folklore. The author lived in British Columbia and the setting is 1950's west coast Canada. More appropriate for children grade 3+ as some of their adventures may be scary for younger children (i.e. the "Lake Snake Swamp"). Paperback has beautiful new illustrations. Has a "Harry Potter" feel to it. Loved it so much I named my web site after it!
