Industry Reviews

"A must-have for primary libraries."

* Achuka *

"A real treat of a book, stretching back into the distant past with a truly unique perspective on prehistory that isn't just your average dinosaur book."

* Read it, Daddy! *

"From a fiery earth to dinosaurs early humans, and homo sapiens, time-travelling kids investigate all that happened before history began to be written down. Child characters and dynamic art make this well pitched for the top of key stage 1 and key stage 2."

-- Fiona Noble * The Bookseller *

"Takes readers on a time-travelling adventure through four billion years of history."
