Authors: Margaret Peterson Haddix
Since this is the last book in a series that I began writing eight years ago, I feel like I have years of thank-yous to say. First of all I'd like to thank my husband and kids for putting up with me sometimes being mentally in an entirely different century. (Who would ever want to have to tell their teacher, “My mom forgot to sign that permission slip because she kind of thinks it's 1483 right now”? I don't think I was ever that badâwas I?) I owe a huge debt of gratitude to my agent, Tracey Adams, and everyone at Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers who supported the series, especially David Gale, Navah Wolfe, and Liz Kossnar. My friends Linda Gerber, Erin MacLellan, Jenny Patton, Nancy Roe Pimm, Linda Stanek, and Amjed Qamar read portions of this and some of the earlier books and offered helpful comments. Kids, teachers, librarians, and bookstore people all over the country also often asked interesting questions that helped me see new angles to take with the books. I have particularly fond memories of a gathering of kids at a book-signing at Hicklebee's in San Jose, California, in 2010, who asked about the time travel in my books vs. Einstein's theories and string theory and all sorts of other fun physics concepts. I think they were all secretly Stanford graduate students who just happened to also be twelve-year-olds, but wow, what a fun conversation.
And, finally, I owe thanks to my friend Marcy Mermel Gessel, who made a really good suggestion five years ago when I was (already) stressing out about how I was going to end this series. Marcy, you were rightâa party is always a great idea.
