How can tomorrow ever be as good as yesterday? Boy doesn't think it can be and puts all his scientific knowledge to use, trying to work out how to go faster than the speed of light and make time go backwards. His grandad discovers him exploring the garden looking for wormholes, a possible shortcut back to yesterday - and reassures him that tomorrow will hold great experiences, which will become new treasured memories.

from an 8-year-old and 5-year-old submitted by robinfowler on August 3, 2020, 8:29am It's about a kid who thought yesterday was a really good day and he wants to go back there. He has this hypothesis when he finds his grandpa, who tells him about all the good days he's had. The message is you don't have to be worried about yesterday, you can be happy today. This book would be fun to read with your grandparents.
