Description
Skara BraeAround five thousand years ago, a resilient group of farmers and hunters built a thriving community on the Orkney Islands of Northern Scotland. Rather than discarding their empty shells, broken tools, bones, and other waste, they used them to form large mounds of earth over hundreds of years. Later generations dug into these midden piles to create a series of rooms and tunnels to shelter from the harsh winds and cold winter months. The aim of Skara
Around five thousand years ago, a resilient group of farmers and hunters built a thriving community on the Orkney Islands of Northern Scotland. Rather than discarding their empty shells, broken tools, bones, and other waste, they used them to form large mounds of earth over hundreds of years. Later generations dug into these midden piles to create a series of rooms and tunnels to shelter from the harsh winds and cold winter months.The aim of Skara Brae is to gather various Resources in order to feed, clothe, and shelter the growing number of Settlers. Players take turns drafting Village Cards and using their Workers to Furnish, Cook, Craft, Clean, and Trade. At the end of each Round, players need to provide for their Settlers and will likely create more Midden that needs to be cleaned up. After 4 Rounds, the player with the most Victory Points (VP) wins.

Captured a reluctant readers attention
Format: Kindle
We downloaded this book this morning for the Kindle. My daughter is a reluctant chapter book reader, but she saw the cover and was hooked. She loves cats. She read the whole book independently in one sitting and then started rereading it!
I think reading it on the Kindle helped because it gave her percentages of her progress and made her more motivated to finish it!

Cute, funny, and purrfect
Format: Paperback
My daughter and I have been reading this book and have had lots of laughs. We love Gray's personality 😆 It's so fun that it's intertwined with the Unicorn and Sprinkles books we've caught all the hints and when things have happened in the other books. My daughter hopes there will be more books for this series!

Right level
Format: Kindle
Easy to read. Was the right balance of chapter book with minimal pictures that helped my 7 year old stay engaged without needing a picture on every page. My reader made connection of characters/events from other stories by same author.
Review from 7 year old: "Liked that it was a cat with sunglasses."
