Trade Review
“This is an emotional journey, full of heart, about family and wanting to change the past. It’s the kind of story that stays with you long after reading, and it will resonate with many.” — Booklist “With this exciting adventure, Lerangis (the Seven Wonders series) captures the diversity of New York throughout the decades….the thought-provoking concept and Corey’s own heartbreaking attempts to prevent tragedy should easily draw readers.” — Publishers Weekly “[A] light, fast-paced adventure full of lively dialogue and action… a welcome addition to time-travel literature” — School Library Journal “A trilogy opener with all the makings of a grand tale.” — Kirkus Reviews "The plot rockets along but notably avoids sacrificing details for pace, and it offers up plenty of word puzzles, trivia, and bits of New York history along the way. Corey and Leila... are likable, genuine, and brave, just the kind of kids that readers would want to join on an adventure, including this one and those to come." — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
