This #kidlit just... was not for me. To be fair, time travel stories are not my thing. I should have bailed on it halfway through, but one of the podcasts I like has an episode on it that I was waiting to listen to.

Anyway, if there‘s anyone feeling nostalgic for this circa-1987 hardcover, let me know and I‘ll mail it to you. It‘s an ex-library copy in good condition that I managed to remove all the stickers on— just a due date pocket remaining.

House-sitting, cute pets to cuddle, and my new DWJ book has an intro by Le Guin. A wonderful end to my day! Hope yours is as good, Littens!
