An award-winner! This chapter book received a Purple Dragonfly Award from Story Monsters Magazine and also was a finalist for the prestigious Selah Award for Christian Fiction.
Eleven-year-old Jake is amazed when a teenage boy kidnaps the family dog and vanishes. Jake and his twin Ava are determined to find their dog, and soon they use an abandoned key to seek help in--of all places--a clock shop.
This clock shop travels through time and space, piloted by a 700-year-old Swiss alchemist.
But the dog snatcher isn’t easy to catch. He’s a centuries-old alchemist too.
A family-friendly chapter book full of surprises, including a trip to France in 1680.
