Review Quotes:
"Fifth-grader Ava is struggling to figure out where she belongs in her newly-blended family. Her mom got remarried and she now has a stepfather and new brother. They decide to take a family trip to Boston where she buys a bobblehead of president John Quincy Adams. This was no ordinary bobblehead as it magically transports her and her brother, J.P. back in time to the 18th and 19th centuries where they meet John and Abigail Adams. They encounter history in the making, get close to actual battles, and learn much about how America became the great country it is. This book teaches history in a fun-to-read format through an exciting story. (Ages 8-12)"
