Recommendation "Ronna Garcia's Mystery of The Hidden Stones is a delightful story that will engage your whole person-body, mind, and soul. Taking us deep into the woods well beyond bedtime, Garcia writes in such a way to keep eager readers on the edge of their seats. This book is a great family read. The hidden trail of clues chapter by chapter makes it impossible to put down. Garcia also carefully intertwines important issues to discuss with your middle grade children such as broken relationships, loneliness, and making new friends, grounding each subject in the truth of Scripture. I am already waiting with great anticipation for the next book in the Coastal Kids Chronicles!" Dr. M. John-Patrick O'Conner, North Central University "I had the privilege of reading, Mystery of the Hidden Stones by Ronna Garcia with my Grandson Emmitt. Every morning, while on vacation, we would read the book together. One morning Emmitt said, 'Wow, Ronna is a good writer!' This book opened the door to some great spiritual conversations about difficulties we often face in relationships and gave us so many opportunities to talk about the Lord's care of each of us.
