Some say the past cannot be changed. Well, the past hasn't met Charlotte. Forced by her two moms to spend Christmas at her grandmother's dusty old manor house, 10-year-old Charlotte discovers the impossible: an ancient family quilt that travels through time! Now she's trapped in the past with just a needle and thread and a whole lot of questions.

The only people who can help are her mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. The problem is that they're 10 years old as well! Will Charlotte make her way back to the present or remain stuck in the past forever?

Join Charlotte on this magical, time-travelling, Christmas adventure, where there's more than presents under the tree - there are pasts and futures!

About the Author

Peter is a writer and documentary filmmaker from Toronto, Canada. He began writing children's stories when his son was born. When his son Griffin turned five, he asked "where do lost things go before they're found?". Like any good father, Peter answered, "to a magical world that contains all lost things". This was the inspiration for Lost Hallway. In 2021, he also just released a new chapter book called "Stitches in Time Travel", a book for young readers about a magical time travelling quilt! When not writing Peter can be found performing improv comedy. He is currently busy working on Musings and Other Nonsense, a weekly podcast of children's stories and poems as well as a second installment of the Lost Hallway series and a YA science fiction novel.

Editorial Reviews

Peter G. Reynolds' illustrated Stitches in Time Travel is a delight for anyone (and especially for any child) who appreciates family history. Focusing very much on the relationship that Charlotte is able to establish with each woman in the brief amount of time that she is given to visit them, the surrounding context in each case is drawn with care. It is highly recommended, not only for 7 to 12-year-olds but for a wider audience as well.

This story is fresh and contemporary and is perfect for adults as well as children. This holiday offering will activate the imagination and perhaps cause young readers to think about their families, past and future, in new ways. Reynolds combines clever ideas with a heartfelt message that almost anyone can relate to.

Readers' Favorite - Tammy Ruggles

Charlotte's time-traveling Christmas tale is nothing short of fascinating! The author, Peter G. Reynolds, creates a wonderful world with warm feelings of love, hope, and kindness. He smoothly creates the world that opens for Charlotte and each character that she encounters takes on a rich and vivid role in Charlotte's life as she does in their lives.
