Kids "This book is fun to play with. I like the chests and toys the best." David (6) "I usually don't like reading but this is cool cuz it's a game. I like how the toys are the clues to finding the treasure. Every time it's different so I read this one a lot" Scott (8) "The first time I read this book-game, I found the gold on the second chest I opened. The next time it took 7 chests! I like it because I never know when I'm going to find the gold." Tom (9) "The drawings are the coolest ever. I like Monkey Rock the best but my brother likes Dead Witch Tree!" Connor (10) "Sometimes my Dad hides real coins in the treasure chest! So I get extra pocket money when I find the gold treasure!" Hannah (7)

Parents and Grandparents "My son doesn't like to read much but he loves this book! He reads it over and over again because each time the story is different. I like to hide a real coins and treats as the treasure so he is extra motivated to read the story!" Chris "My son has so much fun with this treasure hunt book that he doesn't even realize that he's reading." Shelley "Finally a book my kids choose over TV and video games!" Cathy "This is the only book my son reads over and over again. He likes it because it's always different." John "This book is 20 minutes of my granddaughter sitting on my lap!" Trish "I can't believe what good value this book is! I spent $30 on a picture book the other day. This book has lots of stories plus the toys, treasure map and a website. I've bought five to give to all my grandkids." Charles Literacy Experts “What a fun book. Such a book as this is a great motivational tool to encourage the reluctant reader to find the treasure. The treasure may well be the discovery that he is able to read it!” Roynann Williams – Speech Pathlogist b. App. Sc. (Sp. Path)
“…a novel approach to engaging reluctant readers as it is often difficult to find a book that both engages an older child and keeps the text at an easier reading level. An interactive book that encourages reading is a real treasure in itself.” Barbara Rabbitts – Remedial Literacy Tutor Teachers "Karen read Treasure Kai to my Year 1 class and the kids were so excited about the story and the toys. The kids took turns opening the treasure chests and they loved that they had a say in how the story progressed. And of course they wanted to read it again! Miss Sheridan Cooper "Karen visited my Year 4 classroom three times in November and December 2007 to share the prototype of the book and explain the illustration and editing process to the kids. The kids absolutely loved Karen's visits. They had numerous questions and she answered them all happily." Mrs. Gaye McNaughtan |
