When Luke, Isabel, David, and Julia all receive mysterious letters inviting them to participate in a very special once-in-a-lifetime experience, they have no idea that the experience involves time travel! In Dan Gutmans all-new series, which blends fascinating real history with an action-packed and hilarious adventure, these four very different kids are picked by a mysterious billionaire, Miss Z, to travel through time and photograph some of historys most important events. This time, theyre headed to 1863 to catch Abraham Lincoln delivering his famous Gettysburg Address.
With Dan Gutmans signature mix of fascinating real history, laugh-out-loud humor, and page-turning adventure, this trip through time will have you racing to the end. And while the four new friends narrowly miss their photo finish, you can bet Miss Z will think of another exciting historical moment to send the kids to next!

Dan Gutman may be weird, but he is also beloved by kids, parents, and teachers across the country. His books include the My Weird School series (more than 23 million copies sold), the Baseball Card Adventures (more than 2 million copies sold) and the New York Times bestselling The Genius Files. We also publish his spoofy picture book, Casey Back At Bat, and one of Dan's favorites, Johnny Hangtime. Dan lives in New York (a very weird place), with his weird wife, Nina.
