Jacob Wonderbar must have hit a time warp on his way home after losing the election for President of the Universe, because fifty years have passed on Earth. What's worse, during that time the entire Astral society has come under threat of destruction, and it's up to Jacob to make things--including time itself--right. So, with the unlikely help of Mick Cracken, Jacob time-hops through the universe with Sarah Daisy and Dexter, encountering dinosaurs, Napoleon, and bad '80s fashion in their search for the one person who can help them--Jacob's father.
Buckle your space-belts, the third book in the Jacob Wonderbar series proves that time travel is all fun and games until someone gets stuck in the wrong century!

Funny, charming, sweet, and smart too. Cool characters (especially Sara). Lots of giggles to be had. Any kid (and parent) would enjoy this.
After losing the election for President of the Universe to his arch rival Planet Royal Mick Cracken (see Jacob Wonderbar for President of the Universe), twelve year old Jacob Wonderbar, Sarah Daisy and Dexter Goldstein return home on the Praiseworthy. The trio left home two weeks campaigning and saving the world. However, they are greeted by an earth that has seen five decades pass since they left and Mick is still the President. Instead of forty-something, Jacob's mom is a nonagenarian while he remains a tweener. She tells him to find his missing father to reset the world; a task he has tried and failed to do for two years since his dad went missing.
Mick provides the trio with a time machine as he explains for them to find Jacob's dad they must travel in time and space. Back in the Jurassic Period, Sarah's sister Chloe greets the threesome. At the same (relative) time, the Strangers deploy a time sensitive plan of genocide eradication of the Astral self-exiled earthlings who led by Father Albert went into space. Since his father is an Astral, Jacob knows he is on the termination list as hybrids must die too. They become separated in the dinosaur age, but reconnect when an older Dexter is an advisor to Napoleon.
The third Wonderbar time travel science fiction (see Jacob Wonderbar and the Cosmic Space Kapow) provides middle school children with an enjoyable action-packed thriller that never decelerates. The storyline is amusing though never deep as science is not the objective; fun entertaining reading is and Nathan Bransford achieves his objective with this wacky tale.

This is an incredibly entertaining and well-written book. The plot is jam-packed with excitement, and this is one of those rare books that both kids and adults will find enjoyable. The entire trilogy is remarkable. It is subtly sophisticated and deals with important themes without distracting from the fun or coming off as preachy. I cannot recommend this book strongly enough.
I loved the first two books in this series, and was eagerly anticipating the final book. I was not disappointed! Bransford's book continues the fast screw-ball pace of the first two books, with loads of fun, witty twists. At the same time, there are valuable underlying themes about choices and relationships.
The book starts when the children return to Earth 50 years in the future, and Jacob is given the mission of locating his father who is missing in time. The first two books 'bopped' around space, this books 'bops' around time. The characters visit many times, including the Dinosaur Age, late-17th century France, and the Eighties, among others. Bransford keeps his education to a minimum, which works well with the fast pace, but younger readers are likely to be intrigued and go back for information about Einstein, Bonaparte, and, of course, dinosaurs.
One of the best things about Bransford is his wit. (Spoilers ahead) He makes jokes about eighties fashion, elephants popping into rooms (the elephant in the room), mammoth tipping and a therapist teaching early cavemen about their 'feelings'. The characters solve problems in their usual creative and surprising ways, which keeps the reader guessing and enjoying the zaniness.
As an adult, I'm aware of the underlying themes, and this relatively short book is packed with them. First, there is an overlying theme of rescuing the world from a misunderstanding that, if unchecked, will end in evil. In addition, each character faces their challenges - Derek continues to work on gaining self-confidence, bravery and independence; Sarah deals with an annoying younger sister, as well as misguided parents who are fighting for the wrong side; Jacob deals with the issue of trust in relationships - who to trust and how far he should trust them. The book reaches real depth and wisdom as Jacob meets his father, and accepts his father's limitations. A theme throughout the book is whether the children should change the past permanently or not. Jacob comes to terms with how the past has formed who he is, something he values and would not change.
Although I whole-heartedly gave this five stars, I will add that I would have liked more romance between Sarah and Jacob. But that's a quibble. This is a fun, fast, and bright conclusion that brings the series to a satisfying close (although, I have to add, I wouldn't mind if Bransford decided to extend the series!)
Highly recommended, although I do think younger readers will enjoy this best if they start with the first books of the series.
So fun, and so smart, the Jacob Wonderbar books are excellent children's science fiction stories. The author, Nathan Bransford is an innocent child at heart, and there is nothing better than that. I rated this hardcover Wonderbar book 5 stars, and my 4 year old granddaughter will be inheriting it from me. Actually, she will be inheriting all three hardcover Jacob Wonderbar books from me, and that's simply fabulous.
