Meet our protagonist Angus, he finds history really boring. Obviously that’s TOTALLY wrong, and the first piece of misinformation that I need to correct, but sometimes it takes a journey in a time-travelling trolley with a futuristic cheese-seller, an Ancient Egyptian, a Viking warrior and the actual William Shakespeare to convince the naysayers.
History has always s eemed pretty boring to Angus. Who cares about things that happened thousands of years ago? Tota lly pointless ! That’s what Angus thinks until the day he accidenta lly fa lls into a shopping tro lley and ends up travelling through time with Marge, the lady who runs the ch eese counter at the local supermarket, and who is also FROM THE FUTURE.
And so begins the most epic adventure of his life – exploring a market in Roman Britain, hanging out with Shakespeare, making new friends in Ancient Egypt. Oh, and trying to escape the Evil Emperor Kra from the 99th Century who is determined to destroy the planet. Can Angus and his new friends make it out of the past unscathed and, more importantly, is Ancient camel ch eese rea lly as bad as you imagine?
Only time will te ll!
Sounds good right? Well I can say with 100% factual accuracy that this book rea lly is an exce llent and very entertaining read.
YES IT IS!

A wickedly funny and prank-filled adventure starring one of Roald Dahl’s most hilarious and popular creations, The Twits. This brand-new and deliciously revolting story is brilliantly written by internationally bestselling authors and children’s literacy advocates Greg James and Chris Smith and illustrated by Emily Jones.
Mr and Mrs Twit are just about as nasty and revolting as two people can get. The only thing that brings the two of them pleasure is playing pranks on one another. But, when a new family called the Lovelies move in next door, with their lively 10-year-old twins, they teach The Twits to stop being so mean and horrible and they all live happily ever after . . . Ha! Not really. The Twits HATE the Lovelies.
But how far will The Twits go to rid themselves of their horribly nice new neighbours? And what happens when these new neighbours, who are armed with utter loveliness, start to fight back?
