Valuable Life Lessons

I love this book not only for the superb illustrations, but also for the important message that it relays to children. Perseverance, hard work, and scientific discovery matter, even when you don't receive the public acclaim and financial rewards that you may deserve.

A 6th Grader's Review of The Man Who Made Time Travel

It was a good book, but I have read better books and worst books. It made me want to go to London to see the clocks that John Harrisson made. I would recommend it for people who want to know about history but don't like reading long books.
