Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. middlegrade fiction (innocent father gets death penalty so daughter decides to time travel in order to turn the judge back into a good guy). I got to p. 47 in this (ch.4) but didn't feel like continuing, though I do have respect for the author/illustrators (even if no cookie-eating dinosaurs ever show up--oh wait, that's Mark Teague I'm thinking of). After finding out her dad is being wrongfully accused of a crime he did not commit, Margaret goes against the vow she said to her family and decides to use her power to go back and change the outcome of the judge’s decision. This book can open a discussion with the class about if they had a special power what would they want it to be. Prompts like these can keep students engaged when writing. This book would be best for the older elementary grades. ..."...sure, the past matters - but the present? The present is here and here and here, a sky full of light, a path under your feet, your hair lifted by the wind... All you have to do is set fear aside and stretch out your hand." Sometimes the best way to change history is working towards it right here in the present. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

HTML: Perfect for fans of Margaret Peterson Haddix, When You Reach Me, and Savvy, this charming time-travel story from husband-and-wife team Marisa de los Santos and David Teague follows one girl's race to change the past in order to save her father's future. Thirteen-year-old Margaret knows her father is innocent, but that doesn't stop the cruel Judge Biggs from sentencing him to death. Margaret is determined to save her dad, even if it means using her family's secret--and forbidden--ability to time travel. With the help of her best friend, Charlie, and his grandpa Josh, Margaret goes back to a time when Judge Biggs was a young boy and tries to prevent the chain of events that transformed him into a corrupt, jaded man. But with the forces of history working against her, will Margaret be able to change the past? Or will she be pushed back to a present in which her father is still doomed? Told in alternating voices between Margaret and Josh, this heartwarming story shows that sometimes the forces of good need a little extra help to triumph over the forces of evil. .Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
