De illustraties, en dan vooral de kleuren, zijn mooi. Het verhaal vind ik iets minder. Wat moet een vijfjarige met wormholes en de snelheid van het licht? Uiteindelijk is de boodschap wel duidelijk: teruggaan naar het verleden kan niet. Maar waarom zou je dat willen, als je vandaag ook gelukkig kunt zijn?
