A laugh-a-minute, worst-day-ever adventure full of hilariously witty illustrations and famous faces from history!

Nine-year-old Billy is digging for buried treasure when … he finds a wormhole in the garden! And to make matters worse, all sorts of people from the past begin to clamber through it. Now Billy – aided by his pet dog, Shakespeare – is in a race against time to close the wormhole and round up all the people who have slipped through it, before history is changed for ever! No pressure then…

    Industry Reviews
    This is a hilarious, laugh out loud story, you don't know what madcap plot twist is coming along next. * Primary Times *
    I learned quite a lot about historical characters from the book... I've now decided to ask for a metal detector for Christmas as I hope to find buried armour and other historic items! * Hugo (Age 7), National Geographic Kids *
