Product Description
From School Library Journal
Grade 2-5–More historical mayhem with the Time Warp Trio. Great-granddaughter Samantha drops in from the future, requesting the boys' help. Her robot cat has vanished into the past, along with her school report on George Washington and the gang's time-hopping book. The three warp back to Christmas, 1776, where a very harried Washington is trying to decide whether to cross the Delaware. His officers are all for staying on their own side of the river and predict disaster in battle against the professional Hessian troops. Meanwhile, the freezing, demoralized Continental soldiers are looking for scapegoats. The time travelers must save American history, find Samantha's missing pet, and avoid getting hung as spies. All the series hallmarks are here–short text; snappy, irreverent dialogue; and slyly twisted history. A must for Trio fans–old and new.–Elaine E. Knight, Lincoln Elementary Schools, IL

From Booklist
Gr. 3-5. What could be worse than being time-warped away from home on the day before Christmas? Landing in George Washington's camp on the night before the crossing of the Delaware! In fact, according to Scieszka's improbable history, the Delaware would never have been crossed if Washington hadn't been nudged into action by Fred, Sam, and Joe, the hapless young time travelers known as the Time Warp Trio. But once events are set in motion, they stay in motion, with Washington's men intent on their mission, and Sam intent on finding his cat, which wandered off into the late eighteenth century. With witty dialogue keeping the pace moving along at a good clip, this will entertain readers who like their chapter books short, illustrated, and, if at all possible, funny. Carolyn Phelan

This review is from: Oh Say, I Can't See #15 (Paperback)
I am a long-time fan of any children's book by Jon Scieszka. This was purchased for a grandson who appears to thoroughly enjoy the books in this series that he has so far received.

Time Warped again, Jan 9 2007
By weesie - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Oh Say, I Can't See #15 (Hardcover)
This is another volume in the fun Time Warp Trio series. The humor is appropriate to the audience, that of pre-adolescent boys. Any books which encourage boys to read and to enjoy reading are worth the investment! History becomes more intriguing through the adventures of these pals who travel to a different time in each book. My nephews have been reading and collecting this series since the first volume, and even though they are now older still enjoy the stories.
