Book Synopsis

Join futurologist Tom Cheesewright on a tour of our world, decades into the future.

Eight scenes show readers what wonders await in our cities, our landscapes, inside our own bodies and of course in the expanse of outer space. Lift the flaps to find out what new things we’ll be able to do, how new technology will work, and what changes we can expect about the way we live.

There’ll be virtual assistants to answer all our questions and guide us. There’ll be all sorts of gear we can put on to let us explore the oceans and the skies closer than ever before. Gigantic new structures will straddle land and ocean, with soaring elevators that can carry us all the way to space. Engineers will find ways to help people live on Mars, or explore the galaxy. Tiny robotic pills can monitor our health from the inside, and keep us alive for longer.

The Future is a place of great hope and excitement, and it’s closer than you dare to dream…

Our Review Panel says...

This is an absolutely fascinating book! Beautifully designed and constructed, it is one of the best quality ‘lift the flap’ books around.Each double page spread focuses on a different aspect of the future and what it might look like. From ‘cities of the future’ to ‘bodies of the future’ wonderful visions of our world to come are brought to almost-life in the pages of this book. And as you explore the pages and lift the flaps you realise that in many cases we are already halfway there. I suspect young children will receive the contents of this book with ease and logical acceptance. Perhaps it’s the adults who will ply its pages with awe and wonder. I need a copy for myself!

This book is positive, fun and thought-provoking. At home in any book corner. Equally useful to pore over with an individual or small group of children to promote discussion, questioning and comprehension skills in an exciting way. A treat of a book!
