Reply #1: I remembered loving that book as a kid too [View All]

but I don't recall the details. I think it was just the SF aspects and the idea of time travel that interested me, and it must've been somewhat well written based on my fond memory of it.

But I have learned since that she was pretty devote, but I also have read she was also very supportive and interested in science, but still not surprising that her stories would be pretty much black and white in terms of the moral message and since she was xian not surprising the moral texture of her stories would look like xian messages. I don't mean to say that every xian author will do that but it means taking a step further than some writers take.

I'm not saying you should teach it, you have to choose what you think works best for you and your kids. And it's been a REAL long time since I've even thought of that book and it sounds like it might be a bit more heavy handed than I remember (although I wasn't looking for that kind of message then) and there's certainly plenty of other books to choose from.
