On the Run in Ancient China is a fun story about three kids time traveling to ancient China. The kids have been to the “time travel agency” before, so they know that when they open a book, they time travel! When they arrive in China, they end up in a rice field. While Josh and Emma, the two older siblings, are busy, the youngest, Libby, sneaks away to the Emperor’s palace.

When Josh and Emma discover that Libby is missing, they make a plan to sneak into the capital to find their sister. They travel through a lot of crazy places and have to be careful not to be caught as they continue their travels. They learn about ancient traditions, Chinese writings, the secrets of silk, ancient ways of medicine, and other beliefs. After they finally rescue Libby straight from the throne room, they continue their way home and have more adventures all the way across to the Chinese wall. With lots of luck, they eventually return home.

This book, and the whole series, are very enjoyable to read. I really liked it because it was funny, and the shared facts are great. I recommend this book to ages seven and up, and to kids who like history.
