Alongside beautiful illustrations by Sam Caldwell you'll find incredible tales from history, including:

Stefan Milosavljevich has been obsessed with history ever since he was young. He makes videos about archaeology on his YouTube channel Stefan Milo, often holding a plastic spoon as a microphone. Stefan's aim is to bring the past to life and inspire a fascination in humanity's incredible journey. Sam Caldwell is an illustrator based in Glasgow, UK. He studied Painting at the Edinburgh College of Art. His kids' books include Weird, Wild, Wonderful and The Woo Hoo Crabs . Neon Squid creates beautiful nonfiction books for inquisitive kids (and kids at heart). We believe the most amazing stories are real ones, so our books are for children who want to decipher ancient scrolls, orbit distant stars, and dive into the deepest oceans. Our books are a labor of love-written by experts, illustrated by the best artists around, and produced using the finest materials, including sustainably sourced paper. We hope that by reading them kids are encouraged to further explore the world around them.
