History made real... don't miss the ride! -- Pam Norfolk * Yorkshire Evening Post *
Outstanding nonfiction book with spectacular fold-out illustrations and bite-sized facts. This highly engaging hardback also explains how artefacts are preserved and who looks after them. It's perfect for KS2 classrooms for reading, sharing and dipping into. -- Tom Tolkien * The School Reading List *
Locked in the Museum caught my eye immediately. I opened it. I loved it. Then I discovered there was more to it than I had realised! I was busy exploring the book, following the adventure, visiting the galleries before I realised that the pages fold out and there was even more to engage with. Brilliant! It's one of the best ways to get more into a book, to encourage greater engagement and it works too, even on the adults! -- Louise Ellis-Barrett * Armadillo Magazine *
