Are you kidding? J.C., Smitty plus Pilgrims, Indians, and Shakespeare? This is the tenth in the young adult/young readers adventure series. In this new and exciting experience, J.C. van Winkler and Smitty the ghost travel to Plymouth, Massachusetts, 1620. They enter the time warp to save two Pilgrim children, Catherine and Pierce, but they experience so much more. J.C. becomes involved in not only the lives of the Pilgrim children but also in the lives of young Indians. Much to J.C.'s surprise, the Pilgrims as well as the Indians have all been involved in time travel, and so their new adventures take on a new dimension as they explore the Nation of Nadie, The Secret Land of Goji, the Netherworld, and the World of William Shakespeare. They find that the evil Wicker, who has been imprisoned in the underwater prison of Venice, has a son, Tank, who enjoys exhibiting sinister, vicious acts whenever possible. Thus, the children become absorbed in freeing various famous characters --such as Shakespeare, Dickens, and Swift -- from Tank's malevolent curse. As always, the young readers learn about characters out of classic literature as well as well-known historical figures. In addition, in this latest novel, they also learn about the struggles of the Pilgrims -- religious, political, and social -- not only while they were in Europe but also during their first difficult year in the New World. Because the novel focuses on real places from the Pilgrims' past, photos are included to illustrate places that our Pilgrim Fathers lived and visited. It's a novel that not only entertains but also teaches. All in all, it's a novel of fun, adventure, history, and fantasy.
