Tilly and the Time Machine Chapter Three Year 3 and Year 4 Whole Class Guided Reading Comprehension

Tilly and the Time Machine (Paperback) - Waterstones

This could be read aloud to younger children or is a great chapter book for more independent or able readers. With my teacher’s hat on, I think it could help inspire children to think about their favourite historical characters, who they’d like to meet or what funny fact they’d like to discover about them and be a great stimulus for independent writing. I really loved this book, it's very sweet but also quite sad at the same time since Tilly's mum died. This is one of my most favourite books. I also liked the pictures. I liked Tilly the best and yes of course I would recommend. This book was so exciting I couldn't put it down! I particularly liked the part where Tilly met Queen Victoria because Queen Victoria ate so fast and Tilly only managed to eat one macaroon. It was really funny. The history was realistic to me so it has made me wan to find out more. I like the author Adrian Edmondson and if I liked the sound of the next story I would love to read another of his books. Tilly and her dad, an inventor, live in a fairly chaotic way since Tilly’s mum died. Tilly’s dad invents a time machine and somehow manages to travel away leaving Tilly behind.

Tilly and the Time Machine by Adrian Edmondson review

It sounds plausible enough tonight," said the Medical Man; "but wait until tomorrow. Wait for the common sense of the morning." I like they there is a lot of drama because first her mum dies then she loses her dad and so it's quite dramatic. I like the part where her dad is a talking dog and he makes the time-machine. Sure, you can clearly see she is still a small child given how she reacts to various situations. And how often simple her solutions are. I was laughing at the conversations she had with people from the past. I think the author (Adrian Edmonson) really thought about the book and it's really impressive to know so much history.Ocr tesseract 5.0.0-rc1-12-g88b4 Ocr_detected_lang en Ocr_detected_lang_conf 1.0000 Ocr_detected_script Latin Ocr_detected_script_conf 1.0000 Ocr_module_version 0.0.14 Ocr_parameters -l eng Old_pallet IA-NS-2000483 Openlibrary_edition This is good, it actually feels like the viewpoint of a seven year old girl - not that I'm an expert - but she's not like baby-talking or anything and her motives are honest. It's a good book to encourage girls and show that just because you're young doesn't mean you're useless or helpless. At the same time he doesn't shy away from dealing with proper issues; unemployment, stranger danger, the death of a loved one and how to remember them. On top of that there's still whimsy and fun, it's not dark like it could be, and it's a good model of a healthy father-daughter relationship. After an interval the Psychologist had an inspiration. "It must have gone into the past if it has gone anywhere," he said. When Tilly enters the time machine, she meets lots of historical characters such as, Admiral Nelson, Hans (the famous football payer) in 1966 and Queen Victoria. Following him through time, Tilly ends up at key moments in world history (Trafalgar, the 1966 World Cup final) and an important moment of her own personal family history...

Another 'celebrity' name, but Adrian Edmondson seems like a natural; he doesn't try too hard to be overly funny, or use silly devices to capture attention. He writes a story that to me seems like one I might have wanted to write as a child, and adds a little pathos and gentle humour.

Adrian Edmondson is a well-known comedian and he is very popular. That's why Tilly and the Time-Machine is so funny!'

Of course," said the Psychologist, and reassured us. "That's a simple point of psychology. I should have thought of it. It's plain enough, and helps the paradox delightfully. We cannot see it, nor can we appreciate this machine, any more than we can the spoke of a wheel spinning, or a bullet flying through the air. If it is travelling through time fifty times or a hundred times faster than we are, if it gets through a minute while we get through a second, the impression it creates will of course be only one-fiftieth or one-hundredth of what it would make if it were not travelling in time. That's plain enough." He passed his hand through the space in which the machine had been. "You see?" he said, laughing.Not a bit," said the Time Traveller, and, to the Psychologist: "You think. You can explain that. It's presentation below the threshold, you know, diluted presentation." It made me want to visit queen Victoria and show her a lovely tasty Bangladeshi dish (from where I come from) and get her opinion. I like when she went to the Victorian queen and suggested party sausages for afternoon tea. It was funny when her dad told her to jump out of the window and I found Sir Digby snorting tons name funny.
