A wonderful choice for one-on-one sharing that demonstrates the
value of science and contains a weighty message for both adult and
child.

A 'The Bookseller Pick' on publication
*The Bookseller*
Looking for yesterday is a lyrical, exquisitely-illustrated
adventure through time and a heartfelt entreaty not to dwell in the
past but look to the future — for our greatest adventures are still
ahead of us. (A lesson that adults need to learn just as much as
children.) It is also a poignant portrayal of a relationship
between grandson and grandad and a lovely synthesis of scientific
concepts and realms of the imagination.
