One ordinary meeting of the science club at Parkview Primary School
becomes extraordinary when their teacher takes them back in time to
1843 to meet Christian inventor Charles Babbage. There they learn
about his latest invention, the Difference Engine, but they have to
be careful - if they're not back in an hour they'll be stuck in the
nineteenth century forever! This brilliantly fun graphic novel for
7- to 9-year olds is a fantastic time travel adventure that will
keep kids on the edge of their seats. Children will love the
memorable characters and colourful artwork from illustrator Laura
Borio that brings to life Fiona Veitch Smith's entertaining story,
and the graphic novel format is perfect for kids beginning to
explore their own independent reading. As they follow the journey
of the science club, children will learn about the history of the
computer and its inventor, Charles Babbage, and about how science
and faith go hand in hand. Produced in partnership with the Faraday
Institute, it ties in with the National Science Curriculum for Key
Stage 2, making it ideal for reading in the classroom as well as at
home.
