Can anyone tell me the name of a childrens book that I've been trying to track down.? I read it in the late 1970s/early 1980s. The central character was a young girl who moved to an old house (Edwardian or victorian I think) and in the attic was an old mirror that she could look in and be transported back to the same house but like a 100 years before. Whilst back in time she met up with a young girl that lived there during that period. I remember one time she got stuck there and had to look in a pond or fountain or something to get back! Thanks

Could be moondial by helen cresswell i think-the story sounds familiar but dont know if its what you are after
...or possibly one of the books by Pamela Sykes (Mirror of Danger, Lucy Beware!) used as the basis for a late 70s TV series "Come Back , Lucy".

OMG!! I read that book and loved it!!!! She was visiting her grandmother or an old auntie, right???
Someone please help us with this!!!! It's now driving me crazy!!!! LOL!
Echoes of Louisa?
I'm sure it was something like "The Hidden.." something or "The Secret" something....
Question Author
Many, many thanks to everyone that's responded. After doing a quick google search of all your suggested titles, I have a feeling that it might be Come Back, Lucy that I'm thinking of, although I won't know for definite until I can find a copy

I never realised that there could be so many similar stories out there!

Thanks again.
Thank you -- none of these titles ring a bell....I'll continue the search on my own or go crazy trying! Have a nice day all!
