Summary:

This book is about two children, Meg and Charles, who are trying to search for their father. With help of their friend Calvin, they discover three old ladies who turn out to be more than they thought they were. They go on an amazing adventure where they learn how to tesser (travel from one place to another anywhere in the universe in an instance). When they can no longer help the children, the three ladies give all of the children gifts. Meg gets her faults and a special pair of glasses; Calvin gets the ability to communicate; and Charles gets the resilience of childhood. Together, these three children must fight the evil of “IT.” Will they rescue their father? Will they destroy “IT” for good? Read this book to find out!

I rate this book five monkeys.
