Green Knowe Chronicles series.
Illustrated by
Peter Boston.
This sixth book in the series takes us back to the early days of Boston's beloved home. Roger, a Norman lord's son, discovers two ancient stones that allow him to time travel; he visits the other children who live in the manor during later centuries. It is wonderful to meet them all again and to once more experience the author's masterfully conveyed overlapping sense of time.

Illustrated by
Peter Boston.
All the original interior art has been retained in these reissues that feature new cover art by Brett Helquist. American children might find the slipping in and out of different British time periods difficult to follow or find certain historical references puzzling, but for the right child, the Greene Knowe books convey an unforgettable sense of place and a glimpse at the cyclical nature of time. [Review covers these Green Knowe Chronicles titles: The Children of Green Knowe, An Enemy at Green Knowe, The River at Green Knowe, A Stranger at Green Knowe, and Treasure of Green Knowe.]
