When the bus gets stuck in mud and cellphones don't work, the bus driver heads off to find help.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdjusting to their curious environment, the children begin to experience strange powers: Gabrielle can fly on her skateboard, Annie can freeze time, Emma can warp light, and Ted can make music by waving his hands around.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen the bus driver fails to return, the kids explore the land, taking trails that appear and disappear, and encountering strange creatures, including playful clouds, menacing mist, thundering fireballs, and talking fish. But when terrifying winged beasts begin hunting them, the children must flee for their lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThey become separated, some finding a land of colorful warrior fairies, while others meet an old hermit who has his own strange power. The children learn their magical powers are \"gifts\", but each gift has a weakness. And, the winged beasts have been sent by an evil ruler, Sidtarr, who seeks to use the children's gifts for his own purposes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome of the children head south to the kingdom of a renowned silver cat who may protect them, while others head north toward Sidtar's realm.

They find help in unexpected places and endure trials and dangers as they journey through this mysterious land. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 404\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.9 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 07, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55152961618211,"sku":"9781733091701","price":26.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0986\/8279\/8371\/files\/WjgC79ohjN9781733091701.webp?v=1779797284","url":"https:\/\/homeschoolbookbarn.com\/products\/kingdom-of-the-silver-cat-paperback","provider":"Homeschool Book Barn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
