So Albie finds a box, his mum’s computer and a rotting banana, and sends himself through time and space to find her…

This book was really good. I loved it and couldn’t put it down. I could really sense the characters emotions. This book is probably for 9+, and anyone who likes magic/ science

i absolutely loved this book! when i read it i truly felt like i was getting lost in one of albie's parallel universes. it is one of those books which just pulls you closer and closer, every night my mum would read me a chapter of this book and she left me begging for one more! i was devastated when we finished the book but i was over the moon that albie finally found happiness, even without his mum. this book was about a little boy called albie who lost his mum and was absolutely heart-broken so he decided to create a little box that could travel him to different parallel universes, he first travelled to a world where he found an evil twin albie with his mum dead as well, next he travelled to a parallel universe where he was a girl! but she didn't have her mum either, next and last albie travelled to a universe where he had died as a baby and his mum was still alive, after that he found his way home to his dad and grandpa joe in his own universe. i think the moral of this story is that if someone you care for and love dies then its not the end of the story, its just the beginning of a new chapter.
