4-6Time Twisters series.
Illustrated by
Neil Swaab.
When stepsiblings Doc and Abby come face-to-face with time-displaced Abraham Lincoln, it's up to them to fix history. In the new series' second volume, the duo travels back in time to persuade Abigail Adams, who has joined a pirate crew, that being First Lady is not boring. Sheinkin expertly slips in interesting facts and true events. Swaab's black-and-white spot illustrations add to the comedic tone. Review covers these Time Twisters titles: Abigail Adams, Pirate of the Caribbean and Abraham Lincoln, Pro Wrestler.
