What is Greek Adventure about?

Join Harriet, Darwin’s pet tortoise, and Milton, Schrödinger’s famously indecisive cat, as they travel through time to discover how science began. Their journey takes them from Mesopotamian stargazers to ancient Greece, where they meet Pythagoras and other early thinkers. Along the way, they explore big questions about the universe, belief and the relationship between science and religion. Packed with lively illustrations, quizzes and historical characters, this thoughtful adventure introduces young readers to the curious people who first asked how the world works.
