Closing Date: 1st August 2025
A page-turning, laugh-out-loud historical adventure by comedian and broadcaster Iszi Lawrence (as seen on Netflix and Sky History), perfect for fans of Horrible Histories.
Sunil and his inventor friend Alex have a problem. Alex's time machine wants to go time-travelling all by itself! When it turns up in a painting by Leonardo da Vinci, Sunil and Alex must go on a quest through time to collect all the pictures, tiles and tapestries of the machine and bring them back to the present. Join their journey to meet Da Vinci himself, the architect of the Taj Mahal, Ahmad Lohri, the women who embroidered the Bayeux Tapestry, and Imhotep and the artists working on the Pyramid of Giza.
