About This Book

The buzz of a time portal hums in your ears, and the air smells like sizzling pizza from centuries ago. Imagine jumping through time—from the Big Bang to the day pizza was invented—where one simple rule stands: don’t touch anything. But what happens when that rule is about to be broken, and the fate of the world hangs in the balance?

With themes of friendship, adventure, and the impact of changing history, it offers an exciting story appropriate for ages 9-12. Parents should note it includes speculative science fiction elements and mild tension around time travel mishaps but no graphic content.
