Think of the street you live on. Now think of how it may have looked in 10,000 BCE, or in Roman times, or in Victorian England at the height of the Industrial Revolution. This title features double-page illustrations that bring fourteen key periods in history to life. It takes you on a 12,000-year walk through history.

It tells me a lot about history that I did not know. It has a timeline at the back of the book which is helpful as it tells me when the important events of time happened. It also has things to do in the book like finding Henry Hyde.

This book wasn’t my favourite book this summer but I did like learning about different times in history and talking to my parents about them. I really liked the detailed pictures and they made me feel like I was being whisked back through history. My favourite page was the Romans because the pictures were brilliant and I learnt lots of new information.

I loved A Street Through Time because of the details in the pictures and text. My favourite time was the time now because I could see what the different people in the street were doing at that moment!

We got to see what the Vikings town looked like. We also got to see what we had, the camp with sticks and animal skin.
Everytime they found something new to build it was interesting and the vikings tried to attack us. And we tried to attack other people.

you should read this book because it tells you a lot about how people lived in the olden days and how it has changed through the centuries like the roman times got attacked by people called raiders .The illustrations were helping me see how peoples houses looked like.
