(3) 4-6 Eleven-year-old Miri is ordinary, a singleton middle child between two sets of twin siblings. Her humdrum life changes when a magic eye-glass lens transports her back through time to 1935 where she meets Molly, a girl very much like Miri herself. More than just a time-travel adventure, the story also realistically depicts Miri's complicated relationships with her siblings.
