Hang on a minute! 6 Mar 2007
By Mirage HALL OF FAME TOP 50 REVIEWER
Format:Paperback
144 pages, split over 12 chapters:-

Introduction
It's about time
Terribly messed-up time
The time of your life
Killer calendars
Crazy clocks
The wrong time and place
Making good time
Terribly speedy time
Spaced-out space-time
Time travel for beginners
Epilogue - the end of time

with fantastic fact files, quirky quizzes and crazy cartoons.
Written in a variety of fonts, in the usual Nick Arnold entertaining style.
Black and white illustrations throughout, as well as `Bet you never knew' and `Science Notes' fact-boxes, e.g.:-

'The quartz inside your watch makes a high-pitched whine noise as it vibrates.
This would drive you crazy if your ears were sensitive enough to hear it.

Science has never been so horrible!'
