Molly Moon, Micky Minus, & the Mind Machine: A Captivating Fantasy Novel About Telepathy and Time Travel for Children (Ages 8-12)

She knows what you’re thinking . . . no really, She knows what you’re thinking.

Molly Moon is back from the future—and this time, she can read minds. Not with stage tricks or lucky guesses—she can actually see thoughts popping up. When Molly travels five centuries ahead to find her twin brother, Micky, she walks straight into a trap.

High in a mountaintop palace on Mont Blanc, the spoiled Princess Fang uses a giant, sparking jellyfish machine to drain people’s memories. And no, Micky is not glad to see Molly—he has been thoroughly brainwashed by his governess, Miss Cribbins.

With her faithful pug Petula by her side, Molly must dodge mutant dognakes, outsmart royal guards, and master her new mental power before the machine empties her skull completely.

Can Molly rescue her long-lost twin and outsmart a royal tyrant before her memories are wiped clean?

• Sibling Dynamics: Micky grew up believing he was frail and friendless, but matching torn hospital bracelets reveals a bond no palace brainwashing can break.
• Time Travel Adventure: Journeying through centuries with a necklace of scarred gems, Molly discovers a futuristic world where winged cow flappers soar over Alpine peaks.
• Loyal Animal Companions: Alongside Petula the pug, a telepathic mynah bird named Silver translates dog thoughts and helps crack tricky palace security codes.
