Nikki Young is a writer and lover of stories and ‘The Mystery of the Disappearing Underpants’ was her first book.
Now, her new book, Time School, is being released on World Book day and to celebrate, I have a copy to giveaway to one lucky reader.
When you’re running late for school, then you find your usual train has turned into an old steam train, you know it’s not going to be a normal day.
What you don’t expect, is that it will be a ‘take you back in time’ sort of day.
Jess, Nadia, Tomma and Ash find themselves spending the day at Hickley School one hundred years in the past. They are told stories of bombings, hunger, and fighting, from fellow pupil, Martha, the only person willing to speak to them.
After their time travel adventure, they work out the significance of the year, 1918, and plot to go back. They want to experience a significant moment in history and Jess wants to see Martha again. Not knowing why or how, Jess feels a connection to Martha, and an obligation towards her that she can’t explain.
Going back in time has its risks. Once you go back, there’s no way of knowing if you’ll be able to make it home.
Time School is aimed at children aged 7-9 and written by Nikki Young, who started a creative writing club for young writers aged 7+ called the Storymakers Club in July 2017. Nikki, who is also a Mum, lives and breathes reading and writing for children and lives in Sevenoaks, Kent.
