"Gold!" he yelled. "We've found gold." He picked up a big nugget of gold and jumped up and down. Everyone ran to see…"Hooray!" shouted Luke's mother. "We have found gold at last," she said. "I thought we'd never find any."
The Hunt for Gold is in the Oxford Reading Tree series. It's a Stage 7 book. It's part of the Magic Key series. The children go back to the time of the Gold Rush (1848-1855) and look for gold. It's a fun story and it teaches us about this interesting period in American history. I recommend reading all of the Magic Key series!
