Stacey Casey lives in the small town of Marksville with her dad, who works as
an inventor in the basement of their house. She refers to him as a genius even
though most of his crazy inventions don’t work. However, one day in 2022, one
of his inventions works…. he has created a time machine! His invention takes
them, and their current house (including its modern conveniences), back to 1964.
Instead of going to school that day, Stacey, and her best friend Oliver go into
town to explore what Marksville was like 58 years earlier. They are told
explicitly not to touch anything and to try to remain unnoticed, but that’s
easier said than done!
Stacey Casey: The House That Time
Remembers is the first book in the
Stacey Casey Series of fun middle grade novels, written in the
first person by 12-year-old Stacey. Monochrome illustrations that complement
the text are scattered throughout the pages. The fictional story includes a
myriad of intriguing facts and notable events that occurred in 1964.
The next book in the series, Stacey
Casey and the Cheeky Outlaw (Book 2),
follows Stacey and Oliver when they travel 100 million years back in time for another
adventure… this time back to a land when dinosaurs roamed the earth.
