Amelia Earhart and the Flying Chariot



Two kids must un-twist history after Amelia Earhart changes course in the fourth Time Twisters chapter book by award-winning author Steve Sheinkin.

WARNING: DO NOT BELIEVE THE STORY YOU'RE ABOUT TO READ.
Well, you can believe some of it. There is some real history. But also hijinks. Time travel. And famous figures setting off on adventures that definitely never happened--till now. Time is getting twisted, and it's up to two kids to straighten things out.

Siblings Abby and Doc have been racing through time to fix history after Abraham Lincoln, Abigail Adams, and Neil Armstrong started popping up in the wrong places, at the wrong times. When Amelia Earhart accidentally lands her plane in Ancient Greece, Abby and Doc partner with Kyniska, the first woman to win the Olympics, to get Amelia back on track to finish her first solo flight across the Atlantic.

Steve Sheinkin combines history, hilarity, and surprising twists in Amelia Earhart and the Flying Chariot. The fourth Time Twisters book is a surefire hit with history buffs and reluctant readers alike!

Praise for Amelia Earhart and the Flying Chariot

Praise for the Time Twisters series:
"[Narrator Marc Thompson] transforms history into a rousing romp with his energetic reading. His animated characterizations help earlier times reach present-day listeners--whether through the menace of pirates or the propriety of Abigail Adams." -AudioFile

"Sheinkin's new series for young readers blends the appeal of Scieszka's Time Warp Trio, Osborne's Magic Tree House, and Kinney's Diary of a Wimpy Kid series." -Booklist

"By the end, readers will have learned quite a bit of history along with the protagonists, without being bored at all [in this] silly story." -Kirkus Reviews
