Selma's strange discovery


Last year Selma won an important competition, Young Scientist of the Year! Before she knew it, she was invited to join an exciting expedition in the Amazon jungle. The scientists wanted to find an ancient temple, lost in the jungle for over 1,000 years.


The scientists flew to the base camp, deep in the jungle, in a tiny plane. When they landed, Selma stared in wonder in the beautiful, lush, green rainforest. But she didn't have time to stand and stare: Dr Dax, the big boss, wanted to start immediately... OK everyone, let's find the temple! Go that way! Selmal Then meet back at camp at six o'clock!"


Selma pushed into the jungle with determination. The jungle got thicker and deeper with big branches. It was hot and humid, there were lots of buzzing insects and the air was full of sounds. Monkeys screeched and jumped above her head, swinging through the branches.


She sniffed the warm, scented air... Then suddenly another smell made her jump. Petrol? Can I smell...petrol? she whispered to herself. She looked ahead and saw the top of something small and round. Is that...a car?



The Seekers


Long ago, a wicked tribe called the Digons captured the peaceful kingdom of Raban. Only one thing could save the kingdom and the people of Raban-three magic stones that were hidden in a secret place!


The people of Raban wanted to be free, but first someone had to find the magic stones. So every year the Guardians of the kingdom chose a special boy or girl to go on a journey to find the stones. Before the Guardians chose the special boy or girl, they gave them a test. They wanted a boy or girl who was brave, smart and intelligent. But the journey was very difficult and dangerous. So far, no one had finished the journey and no one had found the stones


Then one day, a young boy called Kehan came to do the test. He was a little boy with a big heart. He wanted to discover the secret place, find the stones and save the kingdom!


To his surprise, Kehan passed the test. The Guardians said that he could take two friends with him on the journey. He chose his good friend Bariel and another boy, Horaf, to go with him. The Guardians gave each child a sword. The swords had magic powers to protect the children on their difficult and dangerous journey


Now our three heroes are at the beginning of their journey in the wild countryside of Raban. In front of them are two paths. On the left, there is a path through thick forest down to the valley. On the right, there is a narrow mountain mack....

First, Neolithic* Britons used primitive tools, which may have been fashioned out of deer antlers , to dig a massive circular ditch and bank, or henge. Deep pits dating back to that era and located within the circle may have once held a ring of timber posts , according to some scholars Several hundred years later, it is thought, Stonehenge’s builders hoisted an estimated 80 bluestones, 43 of which remain
