Author SJ King
Illustrated by Esther Hernando
Tag along with the Timekeepers as they travel through time to fix problems in the past. These history-themed adventure stories for 7 to 9 years olds will help readers discover the amazing people and events that shaped our world.

The Timekeepers are a secret organization of kids who keep the course of history on track. And history needs them-a villain named DeLay is set on causing chaos! When the hands on their special watches start to spin backward, the Timekeepers know that DeLay has been up to no good, and it's up to them to make things right...

In this installment, the Timekeepers are whirled back in time to 1903 in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. An exhausted Orville and Wilbur Wright are desperately trying to fix their airplane. Their initial tests had been so promising, but suddenly, the Wright Flyer's propeller has disappeared! The Timekeepers realize it's been stolen by villainous DeLay, and only they can help save the day and put history back on track.

With a range of adventures that span all of history, The Timekeepers series is perfect for any adventure lover.
