language
(Powerhouse Publishing Aug. 1, 2013)
Jamie’s adventure begins with his summer holiday at Aunt Jane’s Flamingo Pink cottage and the ‘Twist of a Key’ in an old wooden Grandfather’s Clock. He can’t believe he is faced with the ‘Challenge of Chime’ or the doom that will come if he does not complete all the challenges ahead of him successfully. Jamie delights in meeting his new friends especially the Time-Keeper who explains how he is the ‘Chosen Guest’ in their Enchanted Land. The evil Time-Taker has quite a different plan and is determined to see Jamie fail his mission. He plots to take the Crown of Cogs from the Time-Keeper and will not tolerate any child getting in his way.
At the age of ten Charlotte Jones visited her school friend’s house and was fascinated by a magnificent old Grandfather’s Clock. In that moment of curiosity the story of The Enchanted Grandfather’s Clock was created clearly with all the characters and plots.
Charlotte is from Darlington in the North-East of England and is a Qualified Nurse, Teacher, Coach and Author. During her college years she spent much time in North Yorkshire visiting places in this book in the midst of strawberry picking and of course the ‘Tea-pot Trail.’
She attended a writer’s circle at seventeen and was encouraged to write this story.
Interestingly, Charlotte adores pet rabbits, the character Cat-Woman, and cute V.W. Beetle cars. She loves hosting Pudding Parties, Murder Mystery Parties and spending fun times with family and friends.
