This was a fun read! I've only read Lamar Giles's YA stuff, which is a bit more serious in nature, but I loved the Alston Boys and their longing for adventure. It's fast paced and sure to keep kids interested, especially in this time-travel mystery. Loveable characters and a fun mystery, what more could you want in a middle grade book?
