'Funny, touching, thought-provoking . Richly imagined and deeply inventive' Guardian 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 . An uplifting, unforgettable story about family, bravery and living in the here and now, perfect for fans of Time Travelling With a Hamster and Wonder. 'Spectacular' Sophie Anderson 'I loved it' Ross Welford 'Funny, exciting and tense . A wonderful, wonderful read' Phil Earle 'Will break your heart and make it soar . A triumph' Rashmi Sirdeshpande 'Witty and poignant' Louie Stowell 'Refreshingly inventive and gorgeously written . I could not put it down' Clare Harlow 'Astonishing' Philippa Leathley 'A small miracle of a book' Max Boucherat.
