    About this audiobook

    From Mark Oshiro, award-winning author of The Insiders, this time-bending adventure is perfect for fans of Sal and Gabi Break the Universe and When You Reach Me.

    A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year * An ALA Rainbow Book List Top 10 Selection

    Middle school is the worst, especially for David Bravo. He doesn’t have a single class with his best (okay, only) friend, Antoine. He has to give a class presentation about his heritage, but he’s not sure how—or even if—he wants to explain to his new classmates that he’s adopted. After he injures Antoine in an accident at cross-country practice, he just wishes he could do it all over.

    He doesn’t expect his wish to summon a talking, shapeshifting, annoying dog, Fea, who claims that a choice in David’s past actually did put him on the wrong timeline… and she can take him back to fix it.

    But when their first try (and the second, and the third) is a total disaster, David and Fea are left scrambling through timeline after timeline—on a quest that may lead them to answers in the most unexpected places.

    Coco meets Sliding Doors in this laugh-out-loud, heartwarming middle grade novel that explores how our choices make us who we are.

      The title of this book is a twist on the old gag: those who can, do; those who can’t, teach. But if you take out the comma and put some dots on the end, you get to the gist of this book: those who can teach... have something to teach the rest of us

      I was just looking for a book to lift my spirits after a rough night, and low and behold this book showed up on my recommended list. I was just expecting a cute, turn off my brain story, but instead I found a book with a narrator who played a character from the Owl House, a relatable main character, and a sassy queen. This is truly a great book.
