I’m going back in time to save this family. Eleven-year-old Zubair is a seventh son.

This means a LOT of big brothers. But when Zubair’s granny arrives from Pakistan and gives him a mysterious amulet, he discovers it means something else, too: he has inherited a gift. The seventh sons in his family have the ability to time-travel.

With his dad a shadow of his former self since his car accident, and his mum always tired and angry, Zubair has a genius idea. He’ll use time-travel to fix things between them. But each trip comes at a cost.

If he changes something small in the past, it can have a huge effect on his future. And if he gets it wrong, the results could be devastating . .

Funny, heartbreaking and uplifting tale about family, bravery and living in the here and now, perfect for fans of Time Travelling With a Hamster and Wonder.

Deeply funny, even more deeply moving

A wonderful time-travelling tale seen through the eyes of a child who wants to set everything right in the world, only to find there are many ways that things can go right and wrong in everyday life and in history. It has as much humor as soul, blending action and emotion wonderfully.
