Don't Know Where, Don't Know When: Book 1, The Snipesville Chronicles

"Clever and Charming Time-Travel Adventure" -- Kirkus Reviews

The first book in The Snipesville Chronicles series, thought-provoking and engaging novels for young readers in the times in which we now live, written by a real historian.

Hannah Dias, California Girl with Attitude, and Alex, her laid-back brother, move from exciting San Francisco to boring Snipesville, Georgia, and things don't improve when they meet Brandon, a dorky kid who is plotting his escape from the Deep South, and the weird Professor, a woman with a strange secret

Suddenly, Hannah, Alex, and Brandon are catapulted thousands of miles and almost seventy years to England during World War Two.

They fall into a world of stinging nettles, dragon ladies, bomb blasts, ugly underwear, stinky sandwiches, and painful punishments.

But they can't go home unless they find George Braithwaite, whoever he is, and whatever it is that he has to do with Snipesville.

Don't Know Where, Don't Know When is the first installment of The Snipesville Chronicles, a historical fiction series by a real historian.

Annette Laing was born in Scotland, grew up in England, and has lived in the States for a very long time, including 16 years in a small town in south Georgia. She is a published historian of early America and the Atlantic World, and was a professor at Georgia Southern University for many years, before resigning to devote herself to what she calls Non-Boring History, including The Snipesville Chronicles MG/YA series. When she is not writing, performing programs for kids, teens, and adults in schools, libraries, and museums, or speaking at teachers' conferences, Annette lives with her husband and son in Atlanta.
