Recensione:

“This book is hard to put down! Vivid and memorable, SAVING LUCAS BIGGS casts a captivating spell that will keep you turning pages. A heartfelt yarn of family, friendship, and homespun time–travel magic.” (Ingrid Law, NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author of SAVVY)

“A riveting time–travel adventure. Strong storytelling, suspense, lyrical writing, high drama, weighty matters made accessible and a bit of humor add up to a terrific and heartwarming read.” (Kirkus Reviews (starred review))

“The authors weave a tale of justice and family bonds with threads of historical fiction accented with the fantastical physics of time travel.” (School Library Journal (starred review))

De los Santos and Teague craft a gentle, quiet sci–fi story where the focus is not on the science...love, nonviolence, and social justice are. Give this one to readers who like stories about family, doing the right thing, and standing up to those who don’t. (Booklist)

“The authors’ graceful use of language and fearless exploration of a more spiritual dimension simultaneously comfort and challenge readers, encouraging deep thoughts. This novel makes a good companion for armchair time travelers and budding philosophers alike.” (Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books)
