A fourth title in the 'A Day in the Life' series, this time looking at amazing and historic discoveries.
Created by award-winning duo Mike Barfield and Jess Bradley, the book follows the highly successful format of the previous three titles, with a mix of graphic-style factual comics, as well as Secret Diaries, Bigger Picture pages, and Even Bigger Picture double-page spreads.
From the treasures found in Tutankhamun’s tomb and Roald Amundsen’s ground-breaking expedition to the South Pole to the uncovering of the first dinosaur, the accidental discovery of penicillin and the launch of the James Webb telescope, this is a laugh-out-loud guide to the world’s most incredible and wonderful discoveries.
