#14 Sci-Fi eBooks About Time Travel

     Not long ago, the idea of students reading books on a digital reading device like the Nook and the Kindle would have fit nicely in the realm of science fiction.  Now it is a reality.

     That explains why I feel that this theme of time travel for my eBook recommendations is so very appropriate!

     I have four titles to offer in this post, and the most recent is entitled The Magic Half, published in 2008 by author Annie Barrows.  It is the story of an eleven-year-old girl who has two sets of twins in her family.  She feels left out until she travels back in time and discovers her own lost twin.  This eBooks sells for $1.63 on Barnes and Noble and Amazon for their Nook and Kindle readers.

     Dinosaurs Before Dark is the first of the Magic Tree House Series of time travel books.  Written by Mary Pope Osborne, it was first published in 1992.  Jack and Annie discover a tree house with a book that allows them to travel back to prehistoric times.  This eBook sells for $4.99 for both the Nook and the Kindle.

     The first of another popular time travel series was published one year earlier.  The Knights of the Kitchen Table was the first of the wittyTime Warp Trio Series by Jon Scieszka.  It was published in 1991. After Joe receives a mysterious gift from his uncle for his tenth birthday, he finds that he and his friends, Fred and Sam, can travel to the land of knights and dragons. This eBook also sells for $4.99 for Nook and Kindle reading devices.

     Madeleine L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time was published in 1962 and won a Newberry Medal for it the following year.  It is the story of Meg and Charles Wallace who with their friend Calvin O'Keefe enter a tesseract (a wrinkle in time) to search for the Wallace children's missing father. It sells as an eBook for both Nook and Kindle for $6.99.

     (Did you notice that Barnes and Noble and Amazon may be trying to coordinate their prices?)

     Next time I will recommend eBooks about strong, independent kids.
