A whimsical family fantasy about siblings learning that love and acceptance matter more than controlling outcomes, wrapped in time-travel adventure and sibling bonds.

A brilliant boy discovers he can manipulate time using an enchanted family heirloom, then teaming up with his siblings to go back to the eve of their parents’ separation in hopes of changing the outcome. As their schemes become more elaborate, the siblings will learn about family bonds and what they can and can’t control.
