Tennis Shoes and the Seven Churches

With a new twist, Jenny is ill with the same cancer that killed her mother. Her wish is to see her love Marcos before the surgery. Harry sets off for the Nephite times to find Jen's lover, Marcos. Meagan follows Harry, wondering what he is up to. She doesn't believe his story about time traveling, so they set off for the Rainbow Room, but on the way they meet up with Gidgidoniah, who is injured and is being followed by evil men. They run down a strange passage and end up in a new room, the Galaxy Room. They fall through the floor and are transported to Jerusalem in the first century AD. They meet up with a guy, "Joseph called Barsabas" and team up with his grandson, Jesse. Later they also team up with a reletive of Christ, Mary (granddaughter of Mary, Jesus's mother)Now they need to find a way back and they meet unexpected dangers on the way.

I own all seven of the Tennis Shoes books and love and cherish each of them. I read this book for my book report and couldn't wait for the next report to start the next one, "The Lost Scrolls"! I am unhappy he titled this book, "The Seven Churches" because the Seven Churches are mentioned ONCE in the h\whole story. It should be "The Lost Scrolls Part 1". All in all I rate this book 100 out of 5 stars! Must read this series!

When I first heard that the main character was going to be Harry Hawkins in this book I thought for sure that this book and The Lost Scrolls wouldn't be as good as the first for with Jim Hawkins as the main character. To my suprise it was just as good as all of the other Tennis Shoes books (which is really really good.) I can't wait to read Heimerdinger's next book.

The Tennis shoe series is one of the greatest things that ever happened to the written word. I was getting worried with Jim getting older how Chris would keep the series going. I think making it from harries view was ingenious. I can't wait for part two

I've read all of his Tennis Shoes books so far. I can't wait for the next one! I can never seem to put these books down. I even skip dinner sometimes so I can finish...that's how cool his books are. He really knows how to write. Way to go, Chris!!
