Star Bright (XMIN)

An astoundingly "bright" child rocks her "tweener" father's world by proving she can time-travel.

This is a great little story in the nature of John Wyndham's Chocky. It appeared in Galaxy magazine, July 1952.

  1. I also liked this one quite a bit - it seems more educated than most of them. I might have added a little twist at the end where the children had been found down the street, suggesting that the father had 'leaped forward' and done what the children had not been able to do.

    I haven't heard people speak of tesseracts since I read A Wrinkle in Time!
