Charlie Bone and the Time Twister by Jenny Nimmo
Charlie Bone and the Time Twister is second in the Charlie Bone series.
Charlie Bone is still at Bloor's Academy. In this book we learn more about his fellow endowed students and some of the faculty and staff at Bloor's. While Charlie's circle of friends and supporters is widening, the next mystery is very close to him. The Time Twister has brought a boy out of the past into Charlie's time; this isn't just any boy, this is Charlie's Great-Great-Uncle Henry who is only a boy of 11.
The Bloor's and Charlie's weird and mean Grandmother and Aunts want to catch Henry and their plans are not friendly. Charlie must figure out how to save Henry while strengthening the community of good and helpful endowed students. Not all the endowed students are on the side of good, some of them are openly following the evil Bloor patriarch. Can Charlie and his friends band together in order to do good? Can they send Henry back to his own time? Will Charlie figure out what happened to his father?
These books were a big hit with the 3-7th grade children who recommended them to me.
