“"Nessie and the Viking Gold" by Lois June Wickstrom is an entertaining and engaging children's book that takes readers on a thrilling adventure involving stolen coins, a legendary Loch Ness monster, and a rock concert at a historic castle. The story follows Craig, who unwittingly steals coins from a Viking treasure chest at the bottom of Loch Ness.
What makes this story particularly interesting is the unique twist that the stolen coins are somehow blessed or cursed, leading Craig to Nessie's lair. The author manages to create an atmosphere of mystery and suspense with this plot point, keeping readers engaged from the very beginning.
The book also incorporates elements of Scottish culture, such as the setting of Urquhart Castle and the rock concert featuring the characters' favorite singer. This adds depth and authenticity to the story, making it more relatable and enjoyable for young readers. Even as an adult, I learned things, such as the Loch was formed because it is on a fault line.
Overall, "Nessie and the Viking Gold" is a well-written and imaginative children's book that successfully combines elements of adventure, mystery, and Scottish culture. The characters are likable and relatable, and the plot is engaging and fast-paced. Young readers will surely enjoy the thrilling escapades of Craig and Linda as they navigate their way through this exciting tale.”
