Book Description
================
Grade 5–8—This trilogy ends with a bang. Having stumbled upon a way 
to travel through time, Johnny knows exactly when a German bomb will 
be dropped on his English village. Time travel turns out to be tricky, 
however, as it takes Johnny and his friends several trips to alter history 
just enough to save their town, but also to ensure that everything stays 
the same when they return home. Adding to the suspense is the imaginative 
vehicle of a crazy bag lady's squeaky cart to time travel, often with 
unpredictable results. The climax is reached at rocket speed as Johnny 
becomes increasingly aware of the many dimensions of time and ultimately 
relies on this ability to save the townsfolk. Pratchett deftly weaves 
alternate realities together to form a satisfying conclusion, keeping 
confusion at bay by treating the weightier issues of time travel with 
his trademark humor. Alternating between 1990s Britain and World War 
II, he offers plenty for thoughtful readers to mull over even as he 
pokes fun at the genre. While there is little connection to the other 
books in the series, Johnny's quirky sidekicks are back, each sidesplittingly 
portrayed and effectively advancing the plot. It is Johnny who cares 
most about the effect the war will have on his sleepy town, and up until 
the very last page, readers will, too.—Emily Rodriguez, Alachua County
