She is a clever little lady. My favorite part was how each chapter was from the game show: things that fall apart, things you fear, I thought that was great. I enjoyed the story. Thought the plot was so obvious, but when you are writing for kids I think that is the way you would have to make it. I have a small mind, so time travel is always difficult for me. I'm glad she won. I think I would like to try her other book as well. ...more

Good voice, fun and quick read perfect for about fifth-sixth grade. Sort of a Mystery/coming-of-age with a little sci-fi. Interesting to see how New York City has changed over time, and with less violence now.

I struggled to get into this book, and other ones replaced it in my reading. It just wasn't that interesting. ...more

I don't know why, bit this really didn't see to reach me. The whole thing seemed rather disjointed ...more

This children's book sucked me in and I couldn't put it down. It's a quick easy read. Ben liked it so he wanted me to read it too. I'm so glad I did. I would suggest it for anyone. Very cute. ...more
