MONDAY, April 6th at 6AM: More from THE EMERALD ATLAS

Cata Charisma shares more from John Stephen's adventure of three orphaned children and a book of magic.

The children believe they can overcome the witch, but can they best her? Are the friends they have made in this world powerful enough, and wise enough to aid them?  Is it power that they need to overcome this darkness?  More adventure this week.

Upon traveling to the past, they happen across a witch who has enslaved the nearby town in an attempt to find the book, known as the Atlas, that the children possess. As the siblings encounter various magical races in an effort to dispel the witch, Kate discovers that she is intrinsically bound to the Atlas, and that the three children are subject to an ancient prophecy.
