Borrowed Time

Praise for Chronal Engine:

"Think Survivor and Robinson Crusoe, with a helping of Jurassic Park and a seasoning of The Time Machine." -School Library Journal

"This is exactly the book young dino fans would write themselves." -Booklist

In this time-travel dinosaur adventure, Max Pierson-Takahashi and his friend Petra return to the days of the dinosaurs, where they must survive attacks from mosasaurs, tyrannosaurs, and other deadly creatures, including a vengeful, pistol-toting girl from the 1920s. The fast pace, mind-bending time twists, and Greg Leitich Smith's light, humorous touch make this an exciting, fun choice for readers looking for adventure and nonstop action.
