Description
The Time Bandit by Barry Cole takes two eleven-year-old children, Sam and Lizzie, on an unforgettable adventure when they stumble upon a mysterious one-arm-bandit in an old scrap yard. To their surprise, the machine turns out to be a time machine, transporting them back to 655 AD during the boat burial of a Saxon king at Sutton Hoo.
Their journey takes a dramatic turn as they find themselves transported again, this time to the banks of the Little Bighorn river in Montana, where they witness General Custer's last stand. In the heat of the battle, Lizzie risks her life by saving a cavalry officer's horse, an act that would later become immortalized.
With their lives forever changed, Sam and Lizzie must now face the consequences of their time-traveling escapades when they return to their own time. Will they be able to outsmart PC Goodrich, who has discovered their hiding place? explores this thrilling tale to find out.
