Summary: Best friends, Ruthie and Jack, are on a class field trip to the Chicago Art Institute and visit the miniature Thorne Rooms where they find a mysterious key. When the key is accidentally dropped to the floor, Ruthie and Jack are amazed to discover it has a magical power and they shrink to a height of five inches. This allows them to explore the miniature rooms, which is the beginning of an amazing magical adventure transporting them to places and times in history which they never could even have imagined they would actually be observing.
Review: This is such a fun read, including magic, fantasy, and historical events, such as the French Revolution, the City of Paris, The Salem Witch trials and many more wondrous events and places. Recommended reading for ages 8-12.
