When Bob Miller’s dad invents a time machine and sends Doc Tom gets trapped in the time of
the dinosaurs, there’s only one possible solution: send a pair of 17-year-olds (including
Bob) back on a rescue mission!
This was the first book that I got through the Scholastic
Book Club when we moved to Bellevue in 1968. Each month, the club would give you a flier
where you ticked off the books that you wanted, and the next month the books would magically
show up at school!
But they’d overlooked someone. Me. Somehow, by hook or crook, I was going to make that
trip, too. Doc Tom wasn’t the only one who liked dinos!
