The Diary of Curious Cuthbert by Jack Challoner

Meet scientist, inventor, thinker, hero Cuthbert Armeeni, who lives in a land where people use satellites to predict the weather but no one knows that germs cause disease; where calendars can skip a month by royal decree; and where cats can talk - or can they? Discover some of the stories from his own diary, retold in rhyme.

Always frustrated by lack of clarity in books he read as a child, Jack Challoner long felt the need to make the amazing things that science and technology have achieved accessible to a wide audience. After studying physics in London, he trained as a science and math teacher. He then worked at London's Science Museum, in the education department and in their flagship interactive gallery, Launch Pad. Jack left the museum in 1991 to write science and technology books, and to write and perform science shows in museums, libraries, and schools. He's been doing all that ever since, with nearly forty books to his name. He also works as a consultant on other people's science books, and sometimes in television, helping to develop new ideas or work up existing ones. He is also a musician and singer, writing, producing and performing music. He lives in Bristol, England.
