You'll like this one - you will!

If you're by chance a Snicket fan And love that series' style I recommend you get this one Out of the new book pile If breaking codes, like Artemis Gives you a certain thrill And solving riddles is your thing You'll like this one - you will! Three children find a secret door (You may recall this plot) They solve the clues to open it But Narnia, it's not The mystery lies way down below Inside a hidden grotto You really should try this one out You'd be a dummy not to Ships and treasure, ghosts and clues With more suspense in store The good thing is, this is book one And now they're up to four. Rated: 4.5 stars Amanda Richards

A fun, witty fantasy adventure. This book is rockin' fine!

The Door to Time is a wonderful book. I bought it for my grandson. He's twelve and thinks he's too big for me to read it to him, so let me borrow it when he was through. We discussed it afterward and agreed that it was an exciting adventure ... fun, witty and easy to read. Mr. Merryweather is off to a great start with the first book in his new series. All the elements that should make it a classic. Great job; highly recommended for boys and girls. Grandparents, too. LOL

Great book for young readers.

I am a middle school science teacher. I have a lot of students who do not like to read. I am always looking for books that will grab a student's attention. This book definately fits the bill. I was impressed at how easy this book is to read but was still able to keep me wanting more. I enjoyed reading about the three young adventurers and greatly anticipate the second book.

A solid, involving listening experience

In an old house in England there's a door two twins discover which is locked and secret - prompting their curiosity. They seem designated to find the key - and when they do, they discover a road through time that leads to high adventure. Michael Page's expert narration of Ulysses & Moore: The Door To Time brings the action and tension to life in a vivid reading the entire family will enjoy. This is a solid, involving listening experience.
