[Janelle · Rating 4 out of 5]

From the cover ‘Matt and his family are holidaying on the Murray River when he visits an old paddle wheeler. He embarks on a mysterious journey through time, and with his friends, is taught some important lessons in life.’

This was a rather strange story. It had a lot of emphasis on the important lessons I mentioned above, and a very unusual plot. Although some aspects of the plot played out as I expected, other aspects were ambiguous and left me a little puzzled.
