Countdown to Yesterday

Shirley Marr

Eleven-year-old James Greenway is devastated when his parents say they will divorce. He has long seen his father as the more enjoyable parent, but life after the separation complicates that view: his mother’s new home and interests surprise him, while his father seems adrift. Missing the family life he remembers, James turns to his classmate Yan after she shows that time travel is possible. He asks her to send him back, even as Yan becomes uneasy about helping and fears losing their new friendship.
