The Imagination Station Series: Books 7-9
When they step into the Imagination
Station, kids experience an unforgettable journey filled with
action-packed adventure to inspire their imaginations. With each
book, they're whisked away with cousins Patrick and Beth to embark
on a new journey around the world and back in time.
Secret of the Prince's Tomb:
When cousins Beth and Patrick accidentally press the red button
on the Imagination Station, they find themselves in Egypt where they
befriend a boy named Gilead and his second cousin a girl named
Sherah. Their family is in turmoil-their great-grandfather has died
and now their grandfathers feud over who will control the family
palace. Patrick and Beth witness the grand Egyptian burial, help
Gilead and Sherah learn to get along better, and explore the city of
Aramis with its ancient wonders and Egyptian customs-all the while
trying to figure out a way back to Whit's End. As they are leaving
Egypt, they realize that the funeral they attended was for the
biblical Joseph.
Battle for Cannibal Island:
Patrick and Beth are hurled into the South Pacific during the
1840s and take part in a breathtaking search for the mysterious
Starlight Island. The cousins join the clever Scottish pirate hunter
Captain Connor Glenn and the crew of the flagship Saint Andrew's
Lance as they hunt the infamous pirate Captain Tobias Dredd. Their
search leads them to the emerald-green islands of Fiji, where they
attempt to rescue missionary William Cross. But Captain Dredd's
forces attack the island, and Patrick and Cross are kidnapped. Beth
and Captain Glenn must save them, but it's a race against time. And
the only hopes they have of finding the Starlight Island rest in
their trust in God and a broken telescope that just might reveal
more than meets the eye.
Escape to the Hiding Place:
Patrick and Beth arrive in World War II Holland in the farm
country. They must smuggle a baby (by bicycle) into the capable
hands of Corrie ten Boom at her home in Haarlem. Along the way they
hide from Nazi soldiers, meet a Russian surgeon forced into service
by the Germans, and encourage two Jewish children who haven’t been
outside in over three years. The children learn to appreciate the
bravery and sacrifice of everyday people who helped the Jews.
