a light-hearted look at the past

* Evening Echo *

a very good book with loads of comics and make and do. There was loads of information about the Celts and Vikings in this book. It taught facts about history in a fun way ... One of my favourite pages was the insult generator. Some of them were very funny. This is a World Book Day Book 2022. It would definitely be worth buying with your voucher ... I would recommend this book for children age 7 - 10. I would give it 10/10

About John Farrelly

John Farrelly was born and raised in a village just outside Newry, County Down. He wouldn't say his family home was small but the front and back door was the same. He enjoyed school and thinks the education system in Irelandia is the bestest. After dropping out of art college, he worked in an amusement park. He was fired but he took them for funfair dismissal. Then he became a freelance caricature artist. It's a very secure job - no one else wants it. The O'Brien Press stupidly let him write and illustrate the first book in the Deadly! Irish History series about THE VIKINGS and now they can't get rid of him. He went on to write and illustrate his second book in the series on THE CELTS. And he didn't stop there. Next up are THE NORMANS, with their castles and all the shenanigans of medieval life. This World Book Day book is just some of the fun stuff you can find in his books.
