About this ebook
When he goes to spend the summer with his great-aunt in the family's old house, eleven-year-old Drew is drawn eighty years into the past to trade places with his great-great-uncle who is dying of diphtheria.
Trapped in 1910 with a new family and a new name, Drew must live his ancestor’s life. Can he find his way home before he’s stuck in the past forever?
- Time Travel Adventure: Drew is pulled back to 1910 to take the place of Andrew, a boy who looks exactly like him. But the way back to his own time is gone.
- A Spooky Ghost Story: From the master of spooky middle grade stories, Mary Downing Hahn, this tale asks a chilling question: what if the ghost is you?
- Historical Fiction for Kids: Life in 1910 isn’t easy. With no television, no modern medicine, and a strict father, Drew must learn to survive in a world he only knows from books.
- Facing a Bully: Andrew’s cousin Edward doesn’t trust the “new” Andrew one bit. To survive, Drew must find a courage he never knew he had.

This story is so awesome I have been looking for it since I was in Jr high the only thing I don't care for is with this story being so hard to find they want you to pay for it and only give you enough information to get you hooked to buy the book but for someone who remembers how the story goes and ends its a tease, the sample. Sooner or later I will have the full copy of this book. I love that much, never have I read a book and remembered as mush about it as I do this one.
