Absolutely Everything! Revised and Expanded by Christopher Lloyd

'I think Absolutely Everything! is absolutely amazing. It manages to explain our entire world history in an informed, entertaining and truly accessible way.' - Jacqueline Wilson Embark on a journey across millennia and around the world, from the latest understanding of the origins of the universe, the birth of the Earth, the very first life, the age of dinosaurs, the rise of humans, ancient civilizations, colonialism, wars, technology, everyday life, global struggles for freedom and equality, pandemics – and much more. Eye-catching and informative illustrations and photographs throughout join with author Christopher Lloyd’s engaging narrative to bring to life the most remarkable true stories of all time. The 2nd edition is revised for fuller global coverage and updated with the latest research, as well as with events that have occurred since the first edition. The design has received a fresh treatment and many new photographs have been included.

"This version has been updated with the latest research, as well as with events that have occurred since the first edition and awesome new photographs"

-- It Girl

"They say that reality is stranger than fiction and this brilliant, fact-packed book is just bulging with coruscating curiosities!"

-- Lancashire Evening Post

"This beautifully presented and informative book is a perfect gift for any fact-loving youngster."

-- The Sun

Christopher Lloyd began his career as a journalist with the Sunday Times newspaper. Then, one day, he had a realisation: even with a 1st class degree in history from Cambridge University and experience as a science writer, there was so much about the world he didn’t know. So, he set out to write a book that showed how seemingly unrelated events fit together. After his adult world history book What on Earth Happened? sold 500,000 copies around the world, Chris set out to tell the story to children. Absolutely Everything is the result. Chris lives in Tonbridge, Kent, with his wife and two adorable terriers.

Andy Forshaw graduated in graphic design and illustration from London’s Central Saint Martin’s College and has worked on numerous online and publishing projects. Since 2010, Andy has created more than 5,000 illustrations for children’s books. When not illustrating, Andy can be found exploring the countryside on his bike. He lives in London with his partner and daughter.
