    It was fun to read a book written by an archaeologist. Because there's actual knowledge with the adventure. Nicely written and interesting too!

    This is an amazing book taking the reader (any age will enjoy) on an adventure filled with challenges and experiences that give one a reflection of true life then and now. I am enjoying sharing this book with my grandson who is an avid reader but as I said the story can be enjoyed by anyone. The amazing part too is it is educational but in a way that weaves the knowledge into the adventure in time. I highly recommend it.

    "Greg's First Adventure in Time" brings early American history to life for middle-school readers. The main character Greg is magically transported back in time while helping his mom at an archaeological dig -- and he's immediately mistaken for a god by a young Indian man called Hopelf. They quickly develop a friendship (after Hopelf figures out Greg really isn't a god), and Greg is invited into the Indian boy's life. He learns how to catch fish with a net, hunt with spears, and even skin animals. In the process, he saves Hopelf's life and is welcomed into his tribe as a hero. With the author's detailed knowledge on the subject, you learn a lot about early Native American Indian customs and culture. If your child loves stories about history, Indians, or the great outdoors, he or she will really enjoy reading "Greg's First Adventure in Time."

    I wanted a book series for my 10-year-old grandson without all the fantasy and violence. I read the first book and was excited to finish it. I can't wait for him to read it so we can talk about Greg's adventure!

    Written by my grandson, age 9. I liked this book because I already knew about the Native Americans and how they lived. This knowledge brought this story to life. I would recommend this book to young readers who are interested in history and adventure.

    Greg's First Adventure in Time was thrilling and exhilarating. It prompts the reader to learn more about the pre-Columbian time period. The book is very engaging to readers. The characters are also very interesting. I really liked that Greg and Hoepelf are about my age. All in all, I enjoyed the book and would strongly recommend it.

    This is a fun book for middle grade readers. Greg's mom is an archeologist, and one of the artifacts she has unearthed propels him back in time to that era 3,000 years ago. It has a very informal tone to it that makes it sound more like Greg is your buddy telling you his big story. The tone gets more serious as the story intensifies toward the end. Living in prehistoric times isn't easy and is often dangerous. I like the way Huddleston builds the friendship with Greg and Hopelf and all the attention to detail. I think this would be a great series for kids who liked The Magic Treehouse books but are looking for something with a higher reading level and slightly older protagonist.

    This book is very well written with adventure, suspense, history, tenderness and humor all wrapped up in one. "Greg's First Adventure in Time" is a great chapter book kids will enjoy and learn from at the same time. Loved it!
