Description: The Hope Chest will capture your imagination and send you off on a fantasy adventure in Ireland!? An orthodox Jewish preteen and a Catholic preteen who are best friends connect their lives despite parental frowns. Their belief in spirituality and intuition gives them strength and courage with every decision they make. A beautiful heirloom hope chest that is under a spell is a prison to a beautiful Irish lass. The two American girls attempt to help her find her way back home. Little do the girls know what they are in for and what they are to learn, but they do everything in their power to help the lovely redheaded Fairleigh. The people they meet through time travel will not only forge their bonds with each other but create and encourage their intuitions. A fun yet dangerous chase combine magic, amazing characters from deep within the earth and enchanted leprechauns who are spellbound traitors.
