Can't remember book title (Childrens/YA book)
I read a book in the early to mid 1990s with this plot:
A girl, either a pre-teen or young teen, plays some game in front of a mirror. Suddenly she can see through the mirror to another girl who looks just like her, except inside the mirror it's obviously the 18th or 19th century. Somehow the mirror girl manages to trick our protagonist to switch places, and our protagonist is stuck in this horrible life where's she basically some sort of indentured servant, fetching things from wells and doing tons and tons of laundry and all the people she lives with hate her. And the mirror girl is now in the 20th century wreaking havoc on our protagonist's life and generally have a great time. Sporadically they can see each other through the mirror, and mirror girl loves gloating. The protagonist has to come up with a way to trick mirror girl into switching back.
If anyone can remember the title of this book, I would really appreciate it! Like I said, this book was read in the early to mid 1990s, so the book is 15 or so years old.
