Ilustration In Pursuance Of Books A Handful of Time
When Patricia's mother sends her to her cousins' cottage for the summer, Patricia doesn't want to go. She doesn't know her cousins at all, and she's never been good at camping or canoeing, let alone making new friends. When she arrives at the cottage, her worst fears come true: her cousin Kelly teases her; Aunt Ginnie and Uncle Doug feel sorry for her. She doesn't fit in. Then Patricia discovers an old watch hidden under a floorboard. When she winds it, she finds herself taken back in time to the summer when her own mother was twelve.Rating Containing Books A Handful of Time

As I am much older than the market this one was aimed at (around 9/10 - 13/14), don't take my 2 stars as a total dislike. I read a lot of children's and YA books, and a lot of them I really like. This one not so much. However, if you like Patricia, the girl in the story, are around 12 years old, with divorcing parents; if you are meeting a family full of cousins for the first time; if you are experiencing "growing up" - I guess this book is a good one for you. There are loads of 5 stars fromKit Pearson's idyllic childhoods and time travel really resonate. Life on the lake and sailing in the loon. Beautiful.
Easy read, and although I love stories about time travel...it isn't one I'd bother to read again or recommend. 2 stars.

I Love this book. And I will love it forever. And I don't fully know why. But I guess that is real love.
Why did I read it in one shot? Yes you've guessed it. It's because it was good.I loved it so so sooo much. The plot, the idea of the story was breath taking. I really really enjoyed it.That's all I can say about. You can see my 5 star review, so you can tell that I loved it. THE BEST.
I really liked this book I thought it was awesome I would so read it aigian
Read in 2014: I thought this book was pretty good! I found the idea of it really cool and I wouldn't of ever changed the way it was written:)
