7 posts | 4 read | 1 to read
Discover a magical world where lost things are found ... Whenever cousins Jake and Marisol get together, adventure follows. They have their late Nana to thank for that. Her epic trips and treasure hunts were the stuff of family legend. This summer, with the whole family reuniting for one last vacation at Nana's home, the cousins are in for a legendary trip of their own. Following a map Nana left behind, Jake and Marisol sneak out to a nearby lighthouse - then accidentally slip into another world ... The World Between Blinks is a magical place, where all kinds of lost things (and people!) end up. Everywhere they turn, the cousins find real mysteries from history - plus a few they thought were only myths. But the man who holds the key to Jake and Marisol's journey home doesn't want to be found ... and if the cousins don't catch him fast, they could end up lost in this world forever.

Their joy was almost too pure to look at, brighter than the burned-out starts in the sky above.

This made me think of the many times I struggled with some of these themes and wish I had this book to help guide me through these times. It was the perfect heartwarming story to dedicate a lesson between the lines.

The world between blinks, published in 2021 was a very adventurous read. Two children disappear into a different universe. There were many lessons tied into the story regarding loss and grief which children frequently struggle with this concept. Even with the dark parts there were laughter and heartwarming parts to keep the story going.

I like how this book was not a version of their world it was a whole different one. This book is good for kids and people that like adventure. I would recommend.

this book seems to have a lot of adventure which i know a lot of my 4th grade students loved so i think it would be a great book for older elementary kids to read!
