“A beautifully illustrated pull-out wall chart covering all of time as we currently know it – from the Big Bang right up until the birth of Prince George –a faux-newspaper-style editorial, a crossword puzzle and a quiz, this book is as entertaining as it is interesting, and although it’s aimed at 7-14 year olds, it has appealed to all the family”.

What other people are saying:

“This is history let out of its box. It simply sings to info-philes and visual learners alike. With parallel timelines for all continents, developments on land, sky and sea, more than a thousand illustrations, it is a superlative mastery of design and research, a treat to eye and brain alike.”

Lucy Pearce – FIVE STAR AMAZON REVIEW

“I’ve got a house full of books, mostly unread, and seem to have got out of the habit of reading much these days. When I find myself in a bookshop, even if I find a book that looks interesting I think about the unread books in my house and return the book to the shelf. That’s not what happened when I opened THIS book!

If it looks really good on the outside – and it does – it gets better when you open it up. Half as big again as A4 you open it to find it’s one long page, folded concertina-like between the covers. You therefore have the choice of dipping into it, sitting down to study it in fascination for hours, or opening it out to make a LONG wall poster and sticking it up on your wall. Which presumably is why they call it a Wallbook!”
