When 11-year-old Felix finds a message in a bottle during a trip to
France, he is in for the surprise of a lifetime. Suddenly he is
flung back 1700 years to Ancient Roman times, dragging his very
unwilling 15-year-old stepsister, Zoe, with him. They are offered
sparrows for lunch and horse-spit as medicine, but that is only the
beginning! When they ricochet forward to their own time again,
Felix and Zoe discover they have accidentally brought a high-class
Roman girl with them... Can they navigate the strange Roman world -
from opulent city to distant sacred spring - and return the
12-year-old girl to her family before time runs out? In this
standalone companion novel to the acclaimed The Boy Who Stepped
Through Time, featuring a whole new cast of characters,
award-winning author Anna Ciddor has created a roller-coaster
adventure that will have young readers on the edge of their seats.
When Perry steps into a crumbling ruin while on holiday in France,
he is not expecting to be transported back 1700 years to Roman
times. While he hunts desperately for a way home, he must blend in
as a slave - even if it means eating mice for dinner! Gradually,
Perry is caught up in the fascinating world of grand Villa Rubia
and a life he could never have imagined. But when he makes a new
friend, he thinks he might already know her terrible fate. Perry is
faced with an impossible choice: to find his way home or stay and
guard his friend's life - and risk being trapped in the past
forever...
