Reviews for Story of Everything:
"It's fabulous."
The Scotsman
"The drawings are wild and anarchic and the subjects really benefit from the pop-up approach."
The Mail on Sunday
A witty chronological chronicle of human ingenuity... a masterful balance of humour, information, and interactive fun.
May get children inventing some gizmos of their own.
