The Time Garden, by Edward Eager

I rate this 2 out of 5 stars.

 

The time garden is about 4 kids that find this garden that has thyme that takes you back in time takes you back in time. In the beginning of the book the kid’s parents go to london and they get dropped off at a old house. At one point they find out that a certain kind of thyme can take you different places and then they try and go to london and find their parents.

I thought it was weird because they meet a talking frog that can become a dragon and that it was sort of unrealistic because they go on a train alone to random strangers.

My least favorite part of the book was when they just came into the house because nothing happens at that part.

All in all I would recommend this book to people that like fantasy time travel.

  1. You have done a nice job including both a concise plot summary and your evaluation of the book. You mention some specific aspects of the book that didn’t work for you which is very helpful for potential readers. In the end, you recommend the book to those who like fantasy-time-travel. Does this mean the book as some redeeming qualities?

  2. How does nothing happen in your least favorite part when you clearly stated that they just came into the house. Also kids are able to be on a train alone. It actually happens a lot.
