Bookroo's summary

Joe, Sam, and Fred accidentally travel back to the Viking era by repeating 'Thursday' near a magic book. Facing the legendary Leif Eriksson and his cunning cousin, they must navigate ancient dangers and outsmart their foes to find a way back to their own time. Will their modern wits be enough to survive this historical adventure and return home unscathed?

From the publisher

Did you know that our word Thursday comes from the Viking god Thor . . . as in Thor’s Day? Neither did the Time Warp Trio. Did you know that if you say “Thursday” over and over again too close to a certain magic Book, you will get sucked back two thousand years to the time of the Vikings? Neither did the Time Warp Trio. Can our trusty heroes, Joe, Sam, and Fred, survive a wild ride with Leif Eriksson, match wits with his evil cousin, and get back home in one piece?
