by Lloyd Alexander
Review this book!
The legendary Lloyd Alexander's last book, published posthumously, follows young Carlo Culchio on a Middle Eastern treasure hunt inspired by a dusty volume of tales. A confirmed day-dreamer, Carlo leaves his uncle's care in search of something special on the Road of Golden Dreams, accompanied by a lazy camel wrangler and a vengeance-bent girl. Mischief, humor, and mistaken identity follow in this middle grade adventure. A 2007 Publishers Weekly Best Children's Book.
