The fantastic follow-up to Time After Time and Stand By Me
Families are so complicated! Molly's dad seems so lonely. He lives on his own, he won't get a pet, he doesn't get on with his brother ... Best friends Molly and Beth suspect his problems lie in his past, but what can two thirteen-year-olds do about that?
Well, when they have a time-travelling door, maybe they CAN do something. The girls go back to 1975 hoping to right some wrongs - if they can navigate 1970s cars, food and boybands - and if the colourful fashions don't blind them first!
A heart-warming story of sticking with your friends and hanging on to your dreams!

Stories about families are always popular, especially with girls, so no wonder this series has proved a big success ... a super evocation of the period, with a strong message about loyalty, friendship and determination
-- Parents in Touch
Curtin certainly hits the Wilson pre/early teen market spot on with this one: best friends, complicated family relationships, tears and cuddly animals. Put all that in the mix with the kind of time travel plots that Curtin made her own in her forever friends series and you've got an emotionally charged adventure where the wrongs of the past can be put right by two teenage girls. Along the way, Curtin manages to probe some weighty issues, including advances in gender equality since the 1970s and men's willingness to talk about their feelings ... This has all the hallmarks of another hit from Curtin
