In 1913 Daisy Van Wyck receives a birthday gift from her world-famous magician uncle: a leather-bound journal to fill with her nearly thirteen-year-old hopes and dreams. Using her uncle’s spell-book, Daisy secretly tries to contact her dead mother. But when the spell goes disastrously wrong, Daisy becomes trapped inside the journal, leaving her in a time warp for the next hundred years. The journal takes on a mysterious life of its own when unsuspecting thirteen-year-olds from different eras visit Daisy’s house and write about their own lives. Every journal writer plays a part in piecing together Daisy’s disappearance and discovers something about themselves in the process. Can anyone figure out how to free Daisy? Whether facing a bully, chasing a time-traveling cat, finding a freaky fortune cookie or losing a friend, each writer reveals a unique take on a timeless truth: being thirteen is never easy.

This book is a very interesting, entertaining read. I like the way it works historical events into the story through the conversations Daisy has with her new friends. As a former teacher I would highly recommend it for children 8-11 years old.

Such a fun read for children and adults alike! I wish more people knew about the amazing tale of Daisy, and her search to get out of a magical journal! This is a great way to discover New York history, and learn about the world in general through amazing characters. It makes me wonder about the stories of every abandoned house I pass by now!

Each chapter has a different feel and teaches you something new about periods in the past, but they all make you want to keep turning the pages to find out what happens next. The history, combined with mystery and suspense, had my eleven year old wanting to sit and read chapter after chapter.

I really enjoyed reading this book! I liked all of the different characters and their personalities, and I liked how the story resolved in the end.
