A prize trip to the Houses of Parliament turns into a much bigger adventure than anyone could have expected in Sufiya Ahmed’s new book.
Suhana is surprised when her design for a Christmas card for their local MP wins her a prize, but excited to be going into the Houses of Parliament. She’s always quick to learn and interested in what’s going on and spots a group of Fridays for Future protesters outside. She’s just as interested learning about the Suffragettes from their tour guide – sadly she’s got personal experience of prejudice as their teacher Mr Hayes is always quick to criticise her, without cause.
Things take a dramatic turn when Suhana and her classmates Mia and Ayaan suddenly find themselves transported back in time to 1911. Suhana meets the real life Lolita Roy and is amazed to find that Indian people were living in London then – she had no idea - and that some were suffragists. She also makes friends with a girl like her, Reena, and is even tempted to stay in the 20th century until she realises it’s up to her to get her classmates back to the future.
This exciting story moves at a terrific pace but still delivers lots of historical information and a real sense of the importance of democracy and standing up for what is right.
When adventure calls – the Time Travellers answer.
Suhana, Mia and Ayaan are thrown together on a trip to Parliament, where they are fascinated by all the history that happened there. Little do they suspect that they’ll be LIVING that history when they are transported back to 1911!
Finding themselves in the middle of a women’s suffrage demonstration, they are amazed to see people from all over the world taking part. Suhana wants to explore but Mia and Ayaan are anxious to get back. Then they lose each other… Will they be able to return to the present without changing the course of history forever?
Join our time travellers as they visit amazing places across the world and throughout history, meeting historical legends and learning more about themselves.
