Time Travel for Beginners

By Jeffrey G Gentile

It's an adventure for all ages when a young boy discovers the secrets of time, the meaning of life, and the flexibility of death.Max Gardner spent the past twenty-years convincing himself that the peculiar events of 1982 never happened, only to be confronted with proof that everything happened exactly as he remembered.The Gardner home is a busy place in the 1980s, with two parents and six children leading eight different lives. As the youngest, 10-year old Max is often overlooked, to his great delight. There's an attic full of wonders waiting to be explored, and he digs joyously through generations of junk - dirty books, opera records, Christmas ornaments, photos, trophies, and the remains of lives past. But nothing prepares Max for the adventures waiting inside that battered, black steamer trunk, where he finds a book that gives him the power to alter events and leap across time. Things get complicated after he accidentally raises the dead and puts his entire family at risk. Now, Max has to sort out the mess to avert catastrophe and build a relationship with his distant, disapproving father. Time Travel for Beginners shows what's possible with hope, help, and a little prayer. But what happens when the strange powers return?
