Middle Grade Monday: August Book of the Month

Welcome to the first Middle Grade Monday in August! It’s been awhile since we’ve featured a MG book of the month and I’m excited to revive this grand ol’ tradition!

So, without further adieu (drum roll please…) I’d like to introduce you to a group of 8th graders who have made it their mission to save the world, in our August MG Book of the Month, Time Fetch, by Amy Herrick:

Official Synopsis

“Edward picks up what he thinks is a rock. He doesn’t know it is a sleeping Time FetchTime Fetch—and touching it will release its foragers too soon and alter the entire fabric of time and space. Soon the bell rings to end class just as it has begun. Buses race down streets, too far behind schedule to stop for passengers. Buildings and sidewalks begin to disappear as the whole fabric of the universe starts to unravel. To try to stop the foragers, Edward must depend on the help of his classmates Feenix, Danton, and Brigit—whether he likes it or not. They all have touched the Fetch, and it has drawn them together in a strange and thrilling adventure. The boundaries between worlds and dimensions are blurred, and places and creatures on the other side are much like the ones they’ve always known—but slightly twisted, a little darker, and much more dangerous.

A fast-paced tale filled with mythology, danger, friendship, and a shocking centuries-old secret, The Time Fetch is sure to delight fans of fantasy adventure with its tale of ordinary kids who tumble into a magical situation.”

Time Fetch hits retail bookshelves on August 13th. In the meantime, stay tuned for my review of the book along with some other fun surprises from the author.

Happy August, everyone!
