About This Book
Reach for this book when your middle schooler is beginning to question the rules of the world or feels pressured by authority figures to do things that do not sit right with their conscience. Time Snatchers is a high-stakes science fiction adventure that follows Caleb, a fourteen year old orphan forced to steal artifacts from the past for a corrupt guardian. It is a compelling exploration of moral autonomy, the search for belonging, and the courage required to define one's own identity against a backdrop of historical heist and futuristic technology. Parents will appreciate the way it tackles the nuance of 'doing what you are told' versus 'doing what is right' for readers aged 10 to 14. It is an excellent choice for kids who enjoy fast-paced action but are also ready to think deeply about their own moral compass and the weight of their choices.
