About this deal

The first time had nothing to do with me. The second time definitely did, but I would never even have been there if it hadn't been for his "time machine." I know--that sounds like I'm blaming him, when I'm totally not, but... you'll see what I mean." The first gripping, Agatha Christie-style mystery starring a brilliant new double act: feisty, funny schoolgirl detectives, Daisy Wells and Hazel Wong. The glorious start to a middle-grade trilogy about a brilliant boy, his loyal friends, and some amazingly intelligent beetles that brings together adventure, humor, and real science! Albert Einstein Hawking Chaudhury’s dad was thirty nine years old when he died for the first time and twelve when he died for the second time. The former happened due to a dislodged piece of metal that caused brain haemorrhage, a leftover from of an accident he had when he was a kid. Choose one moment in every day that is worth cherishing. Welcome that moment into your Memory Palace, nurture it always, and it will never leave you.”

What a delight!! Have been intrigued by this book since I saw in a local bookshop so I was really pleased to be able to get the opportunity to read it Sam Harper, age 11- 'An amazing story which is funny, gripping and has a cute hamster in it – what more could you want from a book? It’s an absolutely brilliant read, I loved it!' As a lifelong magic-nerd, I was thrilled when, in 2019, I was admitted as a member of The Magic Circle.My dad died twice. Once when he was thirty-nine, and again four years later when he was twelve. (He’s going to die a third time as well, which seems a bit rough on him, but I can’t help that.)”

The whole story is centered around the boy and his grandfather's relationship through good times and bad times. They both had a strong bond of friendship and trust and is arrested by the author with lots of deep, heart-felt emotions. El argumento del libro me ha parecido de lo más original, abordando temas muy transcendentes desde una perspectiva muy inocente. La acción y el misterio se mantiene a lo largo de todo el libro, siendo imposible aburrirse o dejar de leerlo. Además, mientras leemos una historia ficticia, se aprenden conceptos tan reales como la Teoría de la Relatividad de Einstein o los reyes y reinas que ha tenido Inglaterra; siempre desde una perspectiva divertida y simple. Es cierto que se trata de un libro con bastantes páginas, por lo que un lector demasiado joven podría llegar a abrumarse (aunque también hay que tener en cuenta el hábito lector de cada niño). Es por esto por lo que recomiendo su lectura para edades a partir de los 13-14 años. En cuanto al final, decir que no es para nada previsible y en ningún momento sabes qué va a pasar; el autor ha sabido muy bien cómo mantener la intriga. Don’t worry: it’s not written in dialect. It’s perfectly comprehensible as it is, with only a few hints at the accent in the text. But if you do know what the Geordie accent sounds like, you might enjoy the book even more!)I was born in Cullercoats, a small seaside town in the north east of England. (It appears in my books as ‘Culvercot’.) aw! it's so cute, but i dunno because i'm going on holiday for a week to Holland and was wondering if i could take my hamster on the train and all? you know the way?” We walk up the alleyway from the seafront toward Chesterton Road, past the jungle of scrubland where the foxes lived, and we look at the house from across the road. All the time I’m thinking about how I’m going to get into the cellar” Al soon discovers that time travel requires daring and imagination. It also requires lies, theft, setting his school on fire and ignoring philosophical advice from Grandpa Byron. All without losing his pet hamster, Alan Shearer…

The concept of time-traveling has been explained very well and easily for the readers and the logics used by the author to make time-traveling possible are apt. Even young readers will find the story to be enlightening for their minds. The author has vividly captured the feel of a person who is traveling through time, and along with Al's feelings, the readers are bound to feel the same way. This content is accurate and true to the best of the author’s knowledge and is not meant to substitute for formal and individualized advice from a qualified professional. Ibegan writing Time Travelling With A Hamster in 2014. Itwas published in January 2016. My second book, What Not To Do If You Turn Invisiblefollowed a year later. Despite me enjoying children’s books, this was perhaps a little young for me to fully fall in love with, but I did thoroughly enjoy it, and think it is a great book for teenagers and older children who are confident readers. Plus, this would make a fun story for parents to read to their children too. Sadr, Sabrina. "Magic and myth with Ross Welford". Barnes Children’s Literature Festival . Retrieved 4 July 2020.
