✦ Synopsis

This humorous time-travel fantasy is about two sisters who are magically transported back to the 1968 Newport Pop Festival in Costa Mesa, California—an outdoor concert later described as "Orange County's Woodstock". Both sisters had attended the festival when they were teenagers. In this book, Amy morphs into her 13-year-old self, wearing a mini-skirt and go-go boots; and her sister Denise turns into her pregnant 18-year-old self, wearing a homemade maternity blouse trimmed with peace symbols that she has fashioned out of red rickrack. Once again, they hear bands such as The Bryds, The Grateful Dead, The Jefferson Airplane, and Steppenwolf. They hitch-hike back to their childhood home, see and talk to relatives who died years ago, and even run into younger versions of their husbands. Despite all the fun they are having, they are plagued with the question, "How are we going to get back to 2018?"

Flash back to the 60s and find out why this story has earned Five Star and Four Star Reviews.

Here's what reviewers are saying about this book:

"Excellently written this story is an outstanding tale of the 1960's with such descriptive detail I felt as though I was really there and living it all through the sisters' eyes. From the festival, the stores, the cars, the house it's all there. So amazing. Step into the photo booth take a flashback and relive 1968 once again."

"Great read, especially if were a "child" of the 60's era."

"Fun in the summertime. If you are of a certain age this book will have you smiling all day long."
