Beschreibung

In Megan Goes Hiking, Megan and her best friend Jane travel to St. David’s in West Wales to visit Megan’s grandparents and do some hiking around the local coast and countryside. Megan experiences feelings from the past, especially when walking through an ancient graveyard and standing in the mouth of a cave, that she thinks was probably used for smuggling and wrecking hundreds of years before.The Psychic Megan Series consists of twenty-three novelettes about a young girl's growing realisation that she is able to do things that none of her family can. Megan is twelve years old in the first volume. She has two seemingly insurmountable problems. Her mother is frightened of her daughter's latent abilities and not only will not help her but actively discourages her; and she can’t find a teacher to help her develop her supernatural, psychic powers. For she wants not only to know what it is possible to do and how to do it, but to what end she should put her special abilities. Megan is a good girl, so it would seem obvious that she would tend towards using her powers for good, but it is not always easy to do the right thing even if you know what that is.

These stories about Megan will appeal to anyone who has an interest in psychic powers, the supernatural and the paranormal and is between the ages of ten and a hundred years old.
