Book SynopsisWe didn't mean to change the past. Now we have to win the war. A stunning ''what if?'' story by a bestselling author about two groups of 12-year-olds one in World War Two, one in the present day. Henry, Frances and Lukas are neighbours, and they used to be best friends. But in middle school Frances got emo, Lukas went to private school and Henry just felt left behind. When they come together again for the funeral of a pet gerbil, the three ex-friends make a mind-blowing discovery: a radio, buried in Henry's garden, that allows them to talk to another group of three kids in the same town in New Jersey, USA ... in the same backyard ... eighty years in the past. The kids in 1944 want to know about the future: are there laser guns? Flying cars? Jetpacks, at least? Most of all, they want to know about the outcome of the world war that their dad and brothers are fighting in. Though Henry is cautious he's seen movies about what happens when you disrupt the fabric of time soon the present-day kids are sending their new friends on a mission to rescue a doomed sweet shop. What harm could that do? But one change leads to another, and the six friends accidentally change the course of history in the worst way imaginable: the Nazis winning the war. Now it's up to the friends to change it back.Co-author Ann Brashares is a New York Times bestseller for The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants, here writing with her fellow children''s author and brother Ben for the first time.

Sweet Cherry Publishing Mina Mistry Investigates: The Case of the
Book SynopsisIntroducing schoolgirl detective Mina Mistry! Being at school is boring when you know you’re going to be something cool like a Private Investigator. Until then, Mina’s going to practise for her future... Aren’t school dinners a bit strange? Chicken nuggets? Again? On pizza? Covered in chocolate? Nobody wants to live on lettuce and broccoli, but children are losing teeth over this! This needs investigating. This looks like a case for Mina Mistry. About the Mina Mistry Investigates series: Introducing Mina Mistry, witty schoolgirl detective and soon-to-be Private Investigator. Mina Mistry Investigates is a fun detective series packed with comic-style illustrations and mystery-solving throughout. Great for reluctant readers aged 7+ and fans of Dork Diaries.Trade ReviewChildren’s literature is most definitely an effective means of communicating a significant message, attracting kids and their suddenly (and similarly) curious parents. The straightforward aim of this story is to encourage youngsters to choose healthy snacks over fatty and sugary ones (or at least maintain a balanced diet). Sometimes that is not possible and this is where all readers should pay attention to a better hidden purpose, slipped in carefully among the pages. Adults may occasionally prove to be contradictory, pointing out one thing and doing the opposite, thus influencing children to head on a wrong direction. Some will detect the mistakes, but will take longer to alert others. A grown-up’s mind is an interesting matter, as it holds plenty of clashing intentions. But a kid’s brain is even more exciting to observe and Mina Mistry is here to prove it. The little girl has a special way with words. She experiments with them, replacing her real family name, Snotbridge, with a secret undercover one, Mistry, alluding to Mystery – eventually I began to see her as a Mistress of Mystery. Her mind is quick to spot the truth and reveal it, but she still chooses her words carefully, avoiding unnecessary discussions and getting straight to the point. What is great about her is that she never scares or gives you the impression she may be misjudging someone. She is aware of both flaws and helpful attributes, and knows when to ask for assistance. Her solitary retreats enlarge her perspective and she will find someone to confide in (you as the reader). Admittedly, she is jotting down her log entries (not to be confused with plain diary entries), with formal references to her current location and status. However, you soon feel as if she often looks away from her notebook and her plush (and best friend), Mr Panda, and gives you frequent side glances. She will either have a “can-you-believe-this-is-happening” moment or slide in an obvious and amusing remark, something which you have been dying to say even in your real-life situations, but have somehow thought it would be irrelevant. I think it is clever how a simple topic like school dinners (or, as the American edition has nicely adapted, school lunches) provides an elaborate plot, a serious investigation surrounding an issue meant to be addressed once and for all. It may be an indirect hint to how taking the first step towards action is often harder than the task itself. Once involved into something, we all go with the flow and link cues and clues. After attending a talk about nutritious eating, Mina does not ignore how the school cafeteria keeps pumping in unhealthy treats. Case files pile up, presumptions are made, clear evidence is discovered. There is not one second where the readers may get bored. And before they realize it, they are motivated to change bits and pieces in their lives. -- Teodora Leon * NetGalley *This is a fun story, an easy read. Mina is so adorable. She's smart and sassy. I want to have a child like her, honestly. I like how simple the story is that makes it enjoyable to read. I think kids will definitely love it. -- Marianne Suba * NetGalley *This is such a fun book for early readers! Mina is a really great character and her personality literally jumps off the page! She is super smart, funny, and sassy too! My daughter loved it! -- Lindsay Landolt * NetGalley *This book was funny and my children enjoyed listening to it. We enjoyed the multicultural references and the storyline. It was an easy to read and and a lighthearted book. -- Kelly Butt * NetGalley *This is a fresh and easy to read book series. The age I would recommend for this book is 7+ and preteens. I would say this book is for people that think school sometimes can be boring and they can flip around that situation with their ingenious imagination. What we like the most: Engaging illustrations that show you Mina’s personality Hilarious way to describe common and simple scenes of school life It is easy to read, even if you have English as a second language. Double point!! Draws the attention to healthy lifestyle at lunchtime -- Ysomar Mendez * NetGalley *This was a lighthearted and fun children's book, and I'm sure a lot of kids will find love within the pages of this book. I loved the formatting (the different fonts used in this book) , the addition of the personal files of most characters, and the illustrations in the book. The story itself was really fun and amazing, and this would be such a fun read for kids. -- Oyinda Adeoti * NetGalley *Very cute and easy for young children to read. The illustrations were adorable and expressive. -- Iman B * NetGalley *
