The hilarious minds from A Day in the Life of a Poo, a Gnu and You have teamed up once again, this time to give a taste of a day in the life of the most famous faces and fascinating places throughout history. Featuring a day in the life of early humans as they paint woolly mammoths on the walls of a cave, a fierce gladiator battling in the Colosseum and a codebreaker at Bletchley Park during World War II. And not forgetting the animals of history - from a day in the life of Hannibal' s war elephant marching over the Alps and an Egyptian cat (worshipped as a god, of course) to a Galapagos tortoise who meets Charles Darwin on his famous voyage of the Beagle and Ham the space chimp. Readers can also discover the bigger picture behind famous constructions, including Stonehenge, the Great Wall of China and the Acropolis, and delve into the secret diaries of a swashbuckling pirate, a knight' s horse and Edward Jenner' s milkmaid. With over 90 entries told in the friendly, informative style of Mike Barfield and brought to life by Jess Bradley' s fun illustrations, this book will have children learning and laughing as they go.
