Jess, Nadia, Tomma and Ash are running late as their alarm clocks didn’t go off due to a power outage. They all ride the train together to get to school. The cars are full except for the last one so they ride in that one. Something is different about this car though.

They end up in a time travel adventure that is surprising.

I don't want to give any of this away, so I will say I read this in one sitting and really enjoyed it.

I like the blending of past events as being "present" ones as they go back in time.

4 stars go get this one.
My thanks to the author and NetGalley for the arc ebook in exchange for an honest review.

It was okay. I didn't finish it however. It simply didn't hold my attention. I tried several times to finish it.

Book was interesting and quite enjoyed reading it. Love the WW1 part of the story and how it all turned out.

An 8-12 (middle grade for North American readers) book involving traveling back in time to a school during the WWI period. There was very little depth within the story, and I know that it's aimed at a younger audience but this is still something that can, and in my opinion should, be included. Other than that, I enjoyed the plot and the emphasis of remembering those we lost during world wars (and other wars) and being thankful for their sacrifice. A good way to bring this story to life for younger children.

This is a short story following four secondary school aged children as they time travel using an old steam train. It was really engaging, and quite fun to read, though it was quite difficult to gauge the proper target audience as it felt too mature for a young audience but too young for a young adult.

This book is for a younger audience and it is lacking in plot and character development. There isn't anything wrong with it but it could've been so much better.

Thankyou to NetGalley, BooksGoSocial and the author, Nikki Young, for the opportunity to read a digital copy of Time School, We Will Remember Them in exchange for an honest and unbiased opinion.
I found the storyline to be well written. It was so realistic and atmospheric. Can't wait to read more from this author Not a book to be missed.
Definitely worth a read.

I throughly enjoyed this awesome combination of historical fiction, science fiction/fantasy and mystery. The blend is perfect and even though it is written for a young audience I found it highly entertaining and I recommend it to anyone with a beating heart. Also, without revealing any story details, I think this will be used to create interest in a period of history that is often considered boring by school aged readers. I sincerely hope you will take the time to read this wonderful, well-written tale.

This novel transports four modern day children back one hundred years to 1918, to the final days of World War I. A wonderful way for young readers to learn about history.

This is a very good read.

Its basically the tale of 4 kids who get on the train to go to school and end up travellign 100 years into the past into their school at the end of the 1st world war. The school knows them, the kids know them and yet they are thrown into a world where everythingn is different and they learn about whta school was like in thr past but they also help someone that is vital to one of their futures.

I’ve been liking seeing the First World War-themed books for younger readers that have been appearing in recent months. At the centenary of the of the end of the war, it’s a good way to engage another generation with one of the most significant events in human history.

As with other books I’ve seen with similar themes, Time School does a good job of connecting modern-day children with the past by introducing us to characters both past and present, characters who find a direct connection over time. We learn through the characters’ eyes how life was, and how things have changed.

Recommended both for the target age group and anyone else who enjoys a creative children’s book.

After a power cut leads to all the clocks stopping overnight, Jess and her friends are running late for school and have to cut through a hedge to get to the station in time for the train. In their hurry they don't realise at first how strange and old fashioned the train is, or how slow it is going. When they arrive at school though, they realise they have gone back in time to the First World War. Will they be able to get back home to their own time, and will they ever find out why this happened to them?
An interesting account of life in the war, viewed by outsiders.

I think 5th grade up will enjoy this time travel book. It takes place partly, during WW 1, which immediately made it of interest to me. WW1 figures in very little youth fiction, it's nice to see someone covering it. This story gets off to an amazingly fast start with a power outage that leads Jess to rush to catch a train to get to school. From there it's a pretty fun joyride for the reader as the story quickly switches to the past, as Jess and her friends are transported to somewhere between 1915 and 1917. Quite a history lesson! Anyway it's a short read and fun.

Jess, Nadia, Tomma and Ash are running late as their alarm clocks didn’t go off due to a power outage. They all meet at the train statin and manage to get on the last train car. As they sit down, they are surprised that they re the only ones in this car. Why? When they arrive at their school, they don’t recognize it as it looks different. The boys outside the school are wearing a type of uniform. The teacher tell the girls they should not be at the boys school area and takes them to the girls area. They are truly puzzled and a little scared. They didn’t want to be separated as everything is different. They wonder if somehow they are back in time. If so, why are they there?

The story is written well. The children’s dialogue is quite realistic in that is the way I think kids at that age talk to each other. The descriptions took me with them in their venture of time travel. While the novel has the science fiction action of time travel, it is also about history. It is about living life during a world war. Friendship in this novel is also an important part of the novel including kindness to others. It’s a great story to read. Don’t miss out!

This is a well written, enjoyable short story. The characters are likeable and engaging. Although this book is aimed at a younger reader I still enjoyed it and would recommend it. I really liked the idea of going back in time and seeing 1918 through young eyes.

Thank you to Netgalley for my copy.

A good book for young readers who like HarryPotter and similar stories. Easy to read, entertaining, with action and suspense.

I'm not really in the age range of the target audience for this book, but I still enjoyed it. Rather a lot.

The underlying theme of this book is how important history is. That we can't just forget people and things that happened a lifetime ago - we need to learn from our mistakes but that we must also remember and give thanks to those who gave their lives for us.

A great book for introducing younger readers to the harsh realities of war.

Sweet story about 4 school children who go back in time to WW I. While they are there, they gain understanding about life during the war. Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for the opportunity to be an early reader in exchange for my fair and honest review.

With the centennial, we'll be studying WWI this year, and this is a perfect book to accompany that. It has the time travel element that so many of my students love, which makes it more likely that they'll pick it up. The characters are clean, the story has some great twists (I figured out about 60% through how it would end, but it will take the kids longer), and good historical context. The one thing I'd like to see more of is fleshing out interactions....or maybe just a longer stay. In the interest of it being an upper elementary book, it's a good length; but it could be upper grades if it were fleshed out more.

Stories about schools and adventuring are extremely popular at the moment and, as we are about to commemorate the end of the Great War, it is quite common to link the two topics together. This story sees the heroes going back in time to the end of the war and how their lives become entwined with the lives of the children who find them. It was a great story but also full of pathos and a sense of the heartache that families suffered when they were waiting to hear about loved ones. Definitely one to add to topic lists in school.
