Jumanji Meets A Wrinkle in Time ....
This book is meant to become a movie .... and Mollie Penrod needs to be involved in the Screen Play. There was so much action in the book .... movement from Time to Time and Place to Place .... it was hard for me to keep up! The Physics involved is fascinating and makes me want to study Singularities and Time Travel. And it almost makes me want to visit Paul's Valley, OK ..... almost.
I want to know more about Jamie's entire family and I look forward to the next book.
Fun book!
With well developed character personalities and quite an original plot, The Secret of Wellington's Map did an excellent job of bringing sci-fi and mystery together. While trying to enjoy their summer vacation, Jaime and Nicole discover a mysterious map that brings them into another world they never thought existed. Now, in what seems a struggle for their lives, the two friends are ready for adventure.
Mixing history, science, adventure and mystery, Mollie Kehl Penrod truly created a work of literature for children and adults everywhere.
The Secret of Wellington's Map
This is a great book that gets tweens interested in history and science while maintaining a level of adventure and suspense. I highly recommend it!
