✳️American Stonehenge, written by Mike Goldstein, is a middle-grade fantasy novel, which is the first book in the 'The Adventures of Jimmy & Andrew series'. It's been so long since I read a good adventure novel.✳️
✳️Jimmy's parents had promised to get him a dog for his ninth birthday. He was so excited to finally have a dog of his own. But he never thought he would find a pet that could talk to him telepathically. Andrew, his dog, was born more than three thousand years ago. Andrew's immortality and telepathic abilities are still a mystery even to the dog himself.
Jimmy's parents were archaeologists, and when they found information about a hidden Stonehenge in America, the family, along with Jimmy and Andrew, set out to excavate the newly discovered area. When strange things start happening, only Andrew, Jimmy and their new friend Pete can unravel the mystery behind Stonehenge. Read on to discover the mysteries behind Stonehenge with Andrew and Jimmy.✳️
✳️I really enjoyed reading this book. I was really caught up in the mystery and was dying to know more. Aside from the adventures, this book also instills some moral values in the kids. This book shows the importance of preserving nature and what happens when we destroy it. The way the author explained about hunting animals was really remarkable.✳️
✳️The author's writing style is outstanding. It is so simple that we can understand it very easily. We can see the whole story before our eyes as if we were watching a movie. I was even intrigued by the way he told the story, it really was engraving. And the illustrations, they were so beautiful.✳️
✳️Who doesn't like a story with bigfoot, aliens, gremlins and an amazing dog! There are many twists and turns in this book. The book ends on a cliffhanger and I'm really looking forward to the second book in this series. I would highly recommend this book to all children and I am absolutely sure they will love this adventurous read.✳️
