Review:
A magical, time-travel adventure in the mould of E Nesbit. * The Times * Exasperated by life at home and school, Katie discovers the solace of reading and writing her diary while hiding under her bed... and wakes up in Buckingham Palace in 1851. Humorous, historical, time-travelling adventure. * Guardian * Completely gripping, this rollercoaster time travel adventure takes Katie, a contemporary New York teenager, back right into the heart of Queen Victoria's reign. Landing unexpectedly in the Buckingham Palace bedroom of Alice, Queen Victoria's younger daughter, Katie is swiftly caught up in a terrifying world of dishonest courtiers plotting unspeakable acts with the help of powerful helpers with extra powers. The details of the life of the Victorian Royals are brilliantly evoked while the adventure spearheaded by three exuberant children rattles along at a cracking pace. * Lovereading4Kids.co.uk * One of the best books I have ever read. * Sophie O'Loughlin, 10 years old, Mslexia * a terrific story of a feisty Victorian girl who gets to meet the Queen... Full of detail about the times and with a mystery at the heart of it, this is a very enjoyable book, * Guardian *
