I crumple to the ground next to the boulder, lean my shaking shoulder onto the rock. . . Like Maja earlier, I'm sobbing. The explanation that seems the most likely is that this really is Sweden in 1755. Impossible, but everything I see tells me it's true. A one-of-a-kind heirloom clock. A plain rock with mysterious powers. A girl looking for home. Sixth-grader Kerstin Bellini is so sick of moving around the USA that she avoids making friends so she won't have to lose them. When her mom drops the bad news that their family of two is about to move again, Kerstin is devastated. But the next morning, when she wakes up in a forest she doesn't recognize, things are definitely worse. Now Kerstin must break her loner habits to accept the help of Maja, a clever farm girl who longs to experience life beyond her tiny village. How can Kerstin find her way back to Minnesota in 2016 when no one even has a phone? And why does Maja think the answer might be found in the woods? Kerstin draws on her love of animals and interest in sewing crafts as she deepens her trust in herself and others-and finds that some things are timeless.
