"I loved the first book, and Leigh is back with another brain-satisfying ice-cream sundae of a picture book with all the toppings. Taking the concept of 'time' in this new story, Martha is taking readers on a journey back into the past, from near history, to the Ice Age, Jurassic, Triassic, Paleozoic...then she fast forwards to the future, post global warming...Leigh's creativeness is jaw-dropping - when you go from page to page as an adult, and take a moment to appreciate the incredible amount of work, skill and imagination that went into creating this sequel, it's amazing." * Nicci Rosengarten, TheKidsBookCurator *
