Oven, Witch and Wardrobe
by Tom Sweeney
Siobhan hopes to advance in the time-travelers' hierarchy by successfully transferring
plague-doomed children from 1410 Europe to Colonial America.
It had seemed such an easy thing to do. Beguile hungry children with food, ship their
dirty young butts off to colonial America and return to the twenty-third century to
become the first researcher ever to use time travel for humanitarian purposes.
