“Fun, fast-paced, hugely enjoyable way to learn about erased parts of our shared history and how they can help us understand and build a better society today.” Sophie Anderson, author of The Snow Girl
When adventure calls – the Time Travellers answer.
Suhana, Mia and Ayaan are thrown together on a trip to Parliament, where they are fascinated by all the history that happened there. Little do they suspect that they’ll be LIVING that history when they are transported back to 1911! Finding themselves in the middle of a women’s suffrage demonstration, they are amazed to see people from all over the world taking part. Suhana wants to explore but Mia and Ayaan are anxious to get back. Then they lose each other… Will they be able to return to the present without changing the course of history forever?
Join our time travellers as they visit amazing places across the world and throughout history, meeting historical legends and learning more about themselves.
PRAISE FOR THE TIME TRAVELLERS: ADVENTURE CALLING
“The first in a thrilling series which explores much needed and missing diverse history. Great characters, punchy storyline. Brilliant!” A.M. Dassu, author of Boy, Everywhere
"Short, pacy and thought-provoking, this thrilling 8+ novel focuses on the suffrage movement, especially the women of colour often erased by history." Guardian
“A rip-roaring, history-hopping, time-travelling, eye-opening adventure! I loved it.” Dan Smith, author of The Wall Between Us
“This is a wonderful opening to what I'm sure will be a fantastic new series. It zips along and packs so much history in in such a deft way. It was only after enjoying the adventure that I realised how much I'd learned.” Sarah Todd Taylor, author of the Alice Éclair series
