The second in a trilogy of magic-fantasy-adventure. In The Cloak of Golden Symbols, Anna returns to her grandfather’s home and studio for another summer. She is excited to spend her time with Stephano, the neighbour’s son, exploring the magical world of things past. Through their adventure into secret worlds, the pair makes exciting discoveries about ancient cultures and how they navigated their lives. Like Secrets of the Painted Door, the first in the series, this book pairs well with curriculum for Grades 5 and 6 in Ontario and BC, delving into ancient cultures, science and art in a way that is fun for young readers.
