Book Blurb from Goodreads:

Max and her dog, Boomer, are in trouble. Big trouble. Max has accidentally smashed an heirloom vase: the only treasure her great-great-great-great-great-great-grandma managed to save when her houseboat sank 234 years ago. Max can come clean—or, she can build a time machine! If she travels to the past and smashes the vase then, there will be nothing for her to break in the future. Brilliant!


In the time machine—surprisingly easy to construct—Max and Boomer bump around to the past and the future, tangle the string of time, and crash into the ancestral houseboat, promptly sinking it. And in the past, the vase remains intact. Disheartened, Max and Boomer return to the moment just before their adventure began, to warn themselves NOT to build a time machine. Duly warned, Max tosses a Frisbee for Boomer, directly in the direction of the vase…



My Review:

**I received this book free from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.**


Thank you to Owlkids Books and NetGalley for giving us this opportunity to read this eArc.

I read this with my son and he found it enjoyable because of the time travel.  His favorite part was when Max went back to Egypt.  I loved the illustrations, it is a gorgeous book.  I also love Max's initiative and creativity in building a time machine.  She's very clever in fixing the problem presented in the story.  This was an enjoyable read!


My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
