@clairelinney.bsky.social I loved Time Tub Travellers and passed it on to my wife who is now going to use it with her class considering it is much more interesting, inspiring and relevant than the text they were going to use. Thank you and @wonderlandbookshop.bsky.social who recommended it.

Picked up this intriguing text alongside a fantastic range of books at @wonderlandbookshop.bsky.social today. Even though I have only just started it, there are so many ideas for teacher resources because it is such an important theme. Are there any resources available @barringtonstoke.bsky.social ?
