TIMELINE

Author: Peter Goes Illustrator: Peter Goes Age: 5 - 12 Pages: 292 pg. Size: 37 × 27cm Reading Level: Lexile: IG1040L A perfect introduction to history for young and old, this illustrated journey through our world’s culture and events travels from the Big Bang to the iPod and into the future. 🇬🇧 Description: An excellent gift for any child who learns through graphics of pictures. Timeline is a trip through time, past dinosaurs, Vikings, Aztecs and spaceships. It looks at wars and disasters; introduces artists, explorers and leaders; shows us living in castles, yurts and skyscrapers. And it does not neglect the imagination—here too are dragons, mythical figures and TV characters, alongside world-changing inventions borne from the imaginations of scientists and explorers. Each scene puts global events in perspective, in space and time. Review "Peter Goes’s stunning Timeline: A Visual History of Our World, with its ribbons of pitch black winding through subtly-coloured, deeply involving pages, perfectly lives up to Gecko Press’s avowed championing of work ‘rich in language and illustration’." ~The Guardian (UK), November 2015
