Imagine that your lifetime encompassed the entire 20th century, from the invention of photography and the automobile to the First and Second World Wars; the discovery of Pluto and the first trip to the moon; the Internet and the cloning of a sheep! Looking back on the 1900s on her 100th birthday, Auntie Violet finds the advances and discoveries of her century to be every bit as amazing in retrospect as they were at the time. Imagine That! features chronologically arranged sidebar information, which matches up to the colour-coded, montage-style illustrations, allowing children to identify the people, places and events that made the 20th century so spectacular. Technology, history, medicine, food, fashion and toys are among the marvellous topics represented by distinguished In Flanders Fields' illustrator Janet Wilson in this homage to the most accelerated century of human history thus far.
