So when he begins daydreaming about the Seven Wonders of the World, something magical happens. Suddenly, Spid finds himself travelling through time and across continents, visiting some of the greatest sights in human history.
But adventures don’t always unfold exactly as imagined…
From ancient marvels to surprising encounters, Spid discovers that history is full of wonder — and that curiosity can take you further than you ever thought possible.
