Time travelling with a hamster
Welford, Ross
Time travelling with a hamster Ross Welford - London HarperCollins Children's Books 2016 - 390 p.
Lexile : 900L
On his twelfth birthday, Al Chaudhury receives two gifts: a hamster and a letter from his dad, who died four years ago. The letter points Al to a time machine, an unimpressive-looking zinc-tub-and-laptop contraption in the secret bunker of their old house. It also describes a mind-blowing mission: if Al can travel back to 1984 and stop a go-kart accident involving his dad as a twelve-year-old boy, then maybe he can alter the course of history--and prevent his dad's death. As Al soon discovers, whizzing back thirty years requires not only imagination and courage, but also garage break-ins, midnight rides on his grandpa's mauve scooter, and even setting his school on fire. And through it all, he's got to keep his hamster safe...
