Necklace of Stars — Veronika Martenova Charles

Miguel was not lonely so much as he was curious. And, when he asked his father to tell him about the city beyond the mountains, he didn't know what would happen. Now by the shore of the Emerald Lake he must choose between his world and another.

High in the Andes, surrounded by giants, Miguel learns that even a boy can stand tall enough to reach the stars.

Veronika Martenova Charles crafts a mystic tale, mixing dreams with reality, humility with grandeur, folk lore with history, and presents it with the clarity of a crisp mountain breeze.
