The Time-Jinx Twins, Book 1
“An endearing and engaging middle-grade adventure”
“Clever, captivating time-travel”
Publishers Weekly Booklife
Twelve-year-old Ellie is bummed when her world-traveler father brings her identical twin sister Kat to Chicago to live with Ellie and their physicist mom. Ellie barely knows Kat! And she isn’t even sure she likes her. Ellie’s into fitness and gymnastics. Sophisticated Kat is into her phone.
But then the bickering twins trigger Mom’s not-quite-finished time machine and travel to 1970 Chicago. A truce is the only way to survive and find a way home.
In tricky situations, escapes, and sometimes just for fun, the sisters make the most of their identical twinness. But increasingly desperate to return home, they resolve to think like scientists and figure it out.
Ellie’s acrobatics and aikido come in handy; Kat calls on her fact-checking, tech know-how, and to Ellie’s surprise, hidden talents for singing and improv.
If they aren’t careful, they just might become friends!
