Book Description
Miss Pepper’s class is going on a field trip to the local university. Once there, they meet the curious Professor Tuesday, the inventor of the Tuesday Teleporter and an expert on the famous Native American war chief Pontiac. The oddball professor’s teleporter takes Miss Pepper’s class back in time to learn about Chief Pontiac and his rebellion of 1763. The students see firsthand the native people of the Woodland Tribes, the French, the British, and the events that led up to Pontiac’s War. The field trip turns upside down when the professor and one of Miss Pepper’s students are captured by Chief Pontiac’s warriors. The two are lost in time and their only hope rests in the hands of Miss Pepper and her students. The class has to follow the professor’s clues and research the past in order to bring their friends home, but time is running out. Can they find the answers that will help them rescue their friends before one of the major battles of Pontiac’s war?
