Book Review: Switched! TJ and the Time Travelers

Switched! TJ and the Time Travelers by Bill Myers is part of a series of books for kids that have a religious / Christian basis interwoven into the adventure story.

The story is about a girl and two boys who are out to save the world but manage to get themselves involved in a series of troublesome situations. During their adventures, they learn character building traits such as love, honesty, patience and kindness along with a can-do attitude.

This book and the series are geared to the 7 to 10 year old age group. The story includes funny words for sound effects, which make it a little more fun. Because the lead female character ends up bald, I'm not sure that a lot of little girls would like that. I also noticed there were a lot of blank pages at the end of the book, which seemed slightly strange to me.

This would be a fun book for kids to read in the car on a road trip, or a good read aloud for parents and kids together.

Disclaimer: I received a free copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for my review. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinion here is entirely my own.
