About this title

Synopsis

It turns out that trips back in time haven t ended for Peri, Henry, and Max. In the second book in the TIME TO TIME Series, the children find themselves right in the middle the Middle Ages, that is. And this time they re lost in a forest, where they stumble upon a group of travelers who seem to be long on medieval tales but short on helpful information. Peri and her stepbrothers are sure they know what they have to do to get home, though, so there won t be any problems this time. End of story. Okay, maybe not. It turns out everything Peri and the boys know is wrong and nothing is how they expect it to be. So when none of their ideas work, they have to rely on a peasant chaperoning his pig, a maiden searching for her dog, a dragon-hunting page, and an unappreciated sorcerer to find the answers. Only everyone seems to be better at losing things than finding them. Now if only someone knew exactly when that pesky bubonic plague was going to start. Don t forget that at the end of the book, you can get your hands on history! Try the nine puzzles, activities, and games based on the story. Make medieval gingerbread, learn to play Nine Man s Morris, and solve a riddle from the 10th century, plus more!

About the Author

Suzanne's initial lifetime plan was to marry Tarzan, but moved on to consider becoming an actress, a baseball player, and a Soviet spy. These aspirations came entirely from reading and writing about them rather than from any meaningful training or talent. In fact, Suzanne was terribly shy as a child and scared to be on stage. When she played baseball, she practiced her ballet positions in the outfield. The whole Soviet spy idea fizzled because, while on the way to job interview with the CIA, she took a detour to browse in a bookstore and completely forgot about the interview. As each of these career plans fell through, it was the love of history, reading, and writing that grew. Growing up, she wrote letters to Laura Ingalls Wilder, pretending to be her pen pal. After reading "Dr. Zhivago", she decided to major in Russian History in college. Now she writes historical fiction because it lets her pretend to live in different times and meet everyone she's always wanted to meet. No book about Tarzan has been planned yet though.
