It wasn't just the typical unicorns and dryads and such.įor an elementary-school book it was good and enjoyable. I also thought the creatures and characters were quite unique as well. Not extremely creative, but I think the little twists - like Trave (the prince) not having to travel alone and actually being quite foolish and dependent throughout the whole book made it more unique than the typical fantasy-adventure-plotline-thing.
He learns from another old, wise king of another land that he can become one by obtaining a special medallion, which was once owned by his father. This book is the story of a prince who wants to become king, instead of his uncle, Panii. However, the book as still interesting and I liked it. When I was younger I enjoyed JourneyForth's books and I think if I was maybe 10 when I read this I would have enjoyed it much more. Watkins.Īlthough a little below my reading level, I read Medallion anyway because I had to for school. Watkins was written first but takes place after Shield by Dawn L. Furthermore, the characters are worth spending time with, and I realize now that it offers young readers a good primer on effective and upright leadership without being preachy. There's enough action and drama to keep a young reader turning pages. It's well put together and set in an interesting and believable fantasy world that feels real but is easy to comprehend. Medallion is a fun adventure story that also works-as is apparent to us now-as an accessible introduction to fantasy for students. We had just finished The Silver Chair and wanted to read another fantasy, one we both remembered fondly but hadn't touched in over two decades. Fast forward another twelve years and my wife-who had a copy in storage-and I decided to revisit this as our bedtime reading. My teacher even had the author, Dawn Watkins, visit class once, and years later I took Poetry Writing from her as one of my minor electives. I first read this in fourth grade, like a lot of kids raised in private schools that used BJU Press curriculum.
