Sam Samurai

88 pp. | Viking | October, 2001 | Trade ISBN 0-670-89915-1 $$14.99
(3) 4-6 Time Warp Trio series. Illustrated by Adam McCauley. A school haiku-writing assignment is responsible for Joe, Fred, and Sam traveling back in time to seventeenth-century Japan. A fortuitous meeting with their own time-traveling great-granddaughters saves the boys from having to contend with the questionable intentions of a future samurai shogun. The lightning pace and breezy tone make this an amusing, quick read.
