It's not often when reading children's books that I read something that I wish I had growing up. The Book of Time was that good. As I turned every page, I felt like a child again. My love of learning and curiosity thrived. I can't wait for my children to be old enough to share it with them.

big bang to world records, types of clocks, and architecture over time, this book has something for everyone. Each 2-page spread covers a separate topic, so it's easy to pick and choose where a child's interest lies and add this to a history or science lesson.
