It's hard to believe that 25 years have passed already, since the first Horrible Histories book, Terrible Tudors, came out! Of course, I wasn't there to see this happening (because it happened in 1993) and I have been a fan since 2014 - but in these four years, I have discovered a lot about history, made more fun by the laughs added in!
This book represents the Horrible Histories series as a school with Terry Deary as the Head Teacher and Martin Brown as the Head of Art. It was extremely fun to read the note by the 'Head Teacher', describing their adventures in the time machine they bought; and the note by the 'Head of Art', describing the exhibition they prepared with artworks and models dealing with history; these ended up becoming my favourites. There was also an exam, another thing to prove this as a school - I got 22/25 - how about you?
With little activities and quizzes dotted across the pages, I think its safe to say that this yearbook was a perfect one to commemorate the Silver Jubilee of Horrible Histories!
