A Well-Timed Enchantment Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Deanna's summer is lousy: Her parents are divorcing, she's stuck in France, and her only companion is a mangy black cat. Things couldn't get worse — or so she thinks....

But things do get worse — much worse — when Deanna accidentally drops her wristwatch into a well that turns out to be a magical gateway in time. The watch finds its way into medieval France, where it will change history forever once it is found — unless Deanna finds it first. Her only help is the cat, Oliver, who is magically transformed into a lanky young man — a young man so dark and mysterious that Deanna soon finds herself falling in love with him.

Synopsis:

A girl and her cat disappear back in time to retrieve a lost watch.

Synopsis:

A teenage girl loses her Mickey Mouse watch in medieval France, and untold adventure ensues in this bright comic fantasy. "Slapstick adventure . . . funny."--The Horn Book "Vande Velde has created an intriguing story, using familiar facts about the Middle Ages and [her usual] sly humor."--Library Talk
