Daniel French is the twelve-year old son of one of the world’s wealthiest men. Daniel may be rich in resources, but he is definitely poor in emotional ties with people and practically bankrupt in social skills. Ignored by his parents and mistreated by those employed to take care of him, Daniel has become manipulative and skilled in verbal self-defense. Never allowed to associate with people his own age, and never allowed to attend school, he found his friends within the books and fine art of the three-story library tower located on his family’s estate. There he became entirely self-educated, and there he developed his passion for learning.
When he is sent off to Cornwall Academy, a boarding school, he is so inept with people that he immediately becomes the outcast with everyone except his roommate.
Small in body, great in knowledge and intellect, Daniel begins to learn quickly, and to adapt. His school community helps him to grow, but Daniel has lessons for both his fellow students and teachers.
It is an important day in the life of a school when any new student enters that school. That student has the opportunity to be an influence for good or an influence for evil. Daniel has made his choices.
Certainly, his four months spent at Cornwall Academy, are for Daniel The Age of Discovery.

I was waiting in line at my credit union when I met this author. He told me about his book and I'm so glad that I went home and bought it. He said he wanted to teach with it and he certainly did. I bought the kindle version but I'll be buying the paper version to send to my nephew. It appealed to me as an adult and I know a young person would enjoy it also.Product details

Daniel The Age of Discovery edition by Peter Pactor Children eBooks Reviews
Reading this book by Mr. Pactor was like being in the classroom of a truly great Educator! The lessons and sage advice he shares through characters who really draw you into the story are priceless! The sage wisdom shared by Mr. Pactor are the life lessons I long for my son to learn and learn well! I came to love all of the characters in the book, there is depth in them that pulled me into the story! I look forward to reading the next chapter in Daniel French's story! And I really want to begin the practice of praying with a prayer shawl, shutting out the distractions that can so interfere with prayer!
This book is the first fiction book I have read since 1988 (yes, that is true). It was hard to put down! Peter has sparked an interest in me to read things other than "how to..." or whatever books. "Daniel The Age of Discovery" is an absolute fabulous book! I read it in about 5 hours total reading time...and was captivated on every page. You NEED to read this book. The underlying truths being taught throughout the story are great...this book is a MUST READ!
An excellent story for teenagers of all ages - and their teachers! The underlying story is a bit far fetched (the only child of the richest person in pre-great depression 1920's America), but the lessons the kid learns, and how he learns them, are ageless. The lifetime of teaching experiences of Mr. Pactor come through in the book. He is likely a master educator who obviously teachers more than mere facts to his students. He teaches life lessons in this book. I'd bet that the actual students in his actual classrooms also learn the lesson the main character of the book learns that "your life is your responsibility." This is a story that teenages - and you - once started will find it hard to put down!
Inspirational! And so informative and thoughtful though fiction.
Excellent story wonderfully written.
I really enjoyed Pete's effort. It doesn't necessarily my prep school experience, but that's okay. Waiting for the sequel.
this is a truly engaging book that is hard to put down. With well formed, believable characters that you will truly care about and well explained classical references this book will keep you interested from start to finish
