This is a fantastic book. I am so glad I found it. Now I am reading another one of Janie works. I will read this book over and over again because it pulls you into the story. And it is not boring either.

Traders In Time-A Dream Quest Adventure

Traders IN Time A review by Olivea Cooper I read Traders In Time by Janie Lynnn Panagopoulos. I liked this book very much. I would recommend that people read this book. It is about Chris,Nick,LeClaire and Meggie. Chris and Nick were racing each other in the woods. Chris fell in a hole and the next thing he knew both Chris and Nick went back in time. They went back to the late 1700's in Michigan near Fort Mackinac. During a time when fur trading was a way of life. Chris was kidnaped by two evil men Gray Eyes and McDogal. Nick makes friends with LeClaire and Meggie two indians who try to help Nick find Chris. This book was suspensful and full of adventure in the wilderness. I learned that they used bear greese to keep their hands from blistering on long canoe trips. Traveling was slow and dangerous. They traveled by foot or boat. Eventually Nick and his friends found Chris. Just in time I might add as Gray Eyes and McDogal were getting ready to sell Chris into slavery. Want to know more you are going to have toread the book.

Traders in Time: A Must Read Book!

Traders in Time takes place when the fur traders and Indians roamed the land in Michigan. I can't tell you everything, but here's my favorite part. Chris bumps into a tree, and it sends him back in time to an evil fur trader room, with two evil fur traders named Red Devil and Greyeyes. Greyeyes and Red Devil capture Chris. Chris' friend, Nick, has to save him so he goes back in time too and he meets two Indians named Leclair and Maggie. They help Nick save Chris from the evil fur traders. So you have to read the book to find out how Chris and Nick get back home again before their mom comes home from the grocery store!

Great book for "kids" of all ages!

This book holds appeal for school groups ages 3 - 12. I know, I am a teacher and I and many of my colleagues have used this book with great success in our classrooms. The author writes a wonderful story which blends fascinating fact with a story line to hold her audience. Due to the fact that many adults do not know much about this era of history, the story is a great read for the older audience, too.
