Draws You In

I thought this book was going to be boring when I first looked at it but I found that as I read on I could not stop turning the pages! The children Peter, Michael and Emma are asked by cryptic Mrs. White who owns a strange pair of glasses to find a mountain spring for her. A strange man tells them many times not to follow someone else's quest.I loved this book. It is very compelling and difficult to put down. The language used is not too hard to understand but the author uses myths such as the Dragon Power and Arthur's Way to make the story interesting. Another interesting aspect is the 'aura glasses' through which a person's aura is revealed. Sometimes this can be sad as they have a distinctly sad or unpleasant aura, or happy as some have unmistakably happy auras.I highly recommend this book.
