Question I'm writing to ask if you could help me out with identifying a book that I've been searching for for some time now. My son (who's now 27) remembers a book he read when he was around 10-13 years old that he loved but has since forgotten the name of. All he can remember is that it involves a boy walking through a mirror into another dimension and at some point, there he almost drowns. If this sounds familiar to you I'd really appreciate if you'd let me know. Thanks so much.
Best Regards,
Penny
Answer Well, if you are sure the main character is a boy, then I'll have to think again. But the storyline you have given is very familiar, only the protagonist is a girl, and the book I have in mind is Mirror of Danger (also published as Come Back Lucy) by Pamela Skyes.
Do let me know if my answer was right.
