About this audiobook

A mischievous boy from the 1950s; a shy girl from today; a time-slip adventure like no other. Beth didn’t want to move to Dublin – she misses her old life and her best friend back in London – and to make matters worse someone keeps messing up her new room ... When she discovers that a boy called Robbie, from the 1950s, is slipping through time and into her house, things start to get REALLY weird! Beth and Robbie create havoc together, learn about their different worlds and manage to help each other when they’re down. But the 1950s and the present day sometimes seem very far apart ... Can their friendship stand the test of time?
