Stuck (1595)

Stuck, Book 2

By: Dave Johnson

Narrated by: Rachel Laurence

They knew they were going back in time. They didn't expect to get stuck there!

This is the second in the Stuck series. It's a stand-alone story that skillfully blends history with fiction to create an adventure story featuring the Baxter children, twins Robert and James and their sister, Lucy. It is narrated by Rachel Laurence, an actress who has starred in films, TV, and on the stage. Once again, the children face a problem that can only be overcome by going back in time.

With the help of Uncle Archie, this time they travel back to the 16th century. To begin with, all goes smoothly, but then a series of dramatic events means they become separated - then stuck! Robert, James, and Lucy are resourceful children and have to learn to adapt to their circumstances and work both individually and as a team to find a solution to their difficulties. Along the way, they meet several historical figures from the Elizabethan period, including the most famous and important person of them all.

The Stuck books can be enjoyed by all ages - from middle-grade children (eight and up) through to young adults and all those who are young at heart.

Great

Awesome time travel story. Great characters and settings. A favorite author and great narrator. I'll definitely continue the series.

Time Travel Hiccup

This story depicted the tale of the second time the Baxter children travel back in time. Due to a series of events, the children get stuck in the year 1595. The story was delightful and charming. The author's creativity painted a picture of what life during 1595 was like. I enjoyed this tale. I recommend it to others, even though it was written for younger readers. Rachel Laurence's narration was skillful and her portrayal added to the story's entertainment. I was given a free copy of the audiobook and I have voluntarily left this review.
