One of a series of top-quality fiction for schools, this is Wells's classic science-fiction story. Strapped on his time machine, the time traveller discovers the secret of the fourth dimension, and journeys far into the future to find out what is to happen to mankind.
The Time Machine is a short novella. I enjoyed the slow reveal of the future world described by Wells, and I was surprised by his political views. Worth a read if you have a free afternoon.
