The O'Neals In The Lost Lodge

The Lost Lodge: The O'Neals In is a detective mystery designed not only to entertain young readers but to strengthen their minds. When an unexpected case hits too close to home, readers are drawn into a world of clues, logic, and discovery-learning to observe, question, and think like real detectives. But this story goes beyond suspense. Each chapter features carefully selected vocabulary words (highlighted with definitions) and end-of-chapter summaries that improve reading comprehension, build verbal intelligence, and develop academic confidence. Ideal for young adults (13-18) or older juvenile readers (as low as 10 years of age).

Author Michael Slater, a Nationally Certified School Psychologist with more than forty years of experience, has crafted a mystery that challenges without overwhelming. Drawing from his work in schools-and his background as a police officer and prison warden-he weaves together an engaging plot with meaningful learning tools. Young readers are encouraged to stretch their vocabulary, deepen their understanding, and strengthen the "mental muscles" essential for success in school and life.

Both thrilling and educational, The Lost Lodge is a wholesome, Christian-based adventure that inspires curiosity, sharpens thinking skills, and reminds children of the power of reading. It is the first in a planned series designed to help students become stronger readers, stronger thinkers, and stronger individuals.
