A fourth title in the 'A Day in the Life' series, this time looking at amazing and historic discoveries.

Created by award-winning duo Mike Barfield and Jess Bradley, the book follows the highly successful format of the previous three titles, with a mix of graphic-style factual comics, as well as Secret Diaries, Bigger Picture pages, and Even Bigger Picture double-page spreads.

From the treasures found in Tutankhamun’s tomb and Roald Amundsen’s ground-breaking expedition to the South Pole to the uncovering of the first dinosaur, the invention of gunpowder, the accidental discovery of penicillin and the launch of the James Webb telescope, this is a laugh-out-loud guide to the world’s most incredible and wonderful discoveries.
