Tilly and the Time Machine
Adrian Edmondson
Tilly and the Time Machine is a swash-buckling, bum-shaking adventure!
Tilly is seven and a half - and about to make history.
When Tilly’s dad builds a time machine in the shed there’s only one place she really wants to go- back to her sixth birthday party, when she ate too many cupcakes and her mummy was still here.
But then something goes wrong! Tilly’s dad gets stuck in the past and only she can save him … Will they make it back in time for tea?

Adrian Edmondson may have been an anarchic misfit in the TV show The Young Ones, but he certainly makes the cut as a kids’ writer. When Tilly’s dad disappears, she’s pretty certain his recently built time machine has something to do with it. Worried that he’s stuck in the past, the plucky little heroine attempts to find him – and what adventures she has, as she stumbles through history hot on his heels (she hopes)!
Tilly is undaunted when meeting historical figureheads: she even manages to boss Queen Victoria around, when she joins her for a delicious afternoon tea. Kids will relish this funny romp and it is perfectly pitched for ages 8–11.
