Book Description

1 Jun 2006 Time-Travelling Cat (Book 4)

Topher Hope is distraught when Ka, his devoted cat disappears, leaving a word on his computer:

TENOCHT*I*TLaN

Wasn't that the home of the blood thirsty Aztecs? Then she must be in dreadful danger. But when Topher travels back to the time of the Aztecs, he finds trouble from another source. The Aztecs think Ka is one of their gods, but El Sol, a piratical Spanish conquistador, thinks she is a witch.

Can Topher save Ka from El Sol, rescue Pima, a girl the Aztecs want to Sacrifice,and escape from the wondrous, floating city of Tenochtitlan before it is destroyed?

5.0 out of 5 stars Maple Class really enjoyed this book! 6 Dec 2011
Format:Paperback
Maple class used this book as the main text for studying stories with a historical setting, linked to our IPC theme of 'chocolate'. Through listening to the story (read by the class teacher, shared reading and listening to the audio version) the children really enjoyed learning about the Aztecs and it gave them an ideal model on which to base their own historical stories. The children, particularly the boys, enjoyed the more gruesome aspects of the story. A book that engages 8-9 year old boys has to be good. The historical aspects of the story gave a true and accurate representation of Aztec history and enabled the children to engage in high-level debates about the rights and wrongs of war and conquests. The complex characters and their relationships provided an ideal tool for studying emotions, inference and deduction.
We thoroughly enjoyed this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Class read 5 Dec 2011
Format:Paperback
At school we have been reading the Time Travelling cat as part of our literacy time to fit in writing in a historical setting. It also linked in with us studying the Aztecs. The children have found it really beneficial as they have found out things about the Aztecs that they didn't know. The children have really enjoyed it and they have come up with some intriguing questions due to their interests. They have especially liked the fact that one of the main characters was a cat as they have been able to relate to it as many have cats.
This book is ideal for any children who want to find out about the Aztecs as it helps to bring the Aztec ways/beliefs to life.

1.0 out of 5 stars Dull! 2 Dec 2011
By P Edant
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Daft premise, a tedious read and very little about the cat. One of the worst children's books my daughter and I have read - it was an effort to finish it and I had no empathy for any of the characters.
