Whilst home alone, he accidentally breaks his grandfather's most prized possession and must scramble for a way to fix it. Alex, his eccentric next-door neighbour, has an unusual solution to his problem - a time machine! Soon, Sunil is visiting the freezing, icy depths of Antarctica as a stowaway on a stranded ship and the heart of London to meet famous astronauts - all while trying to stay away from a mysterious man with a particularly suspicious pet kiwi… _______________ The Time Machine Next Door is an exciting new series of quirky historical chapter books for readers aged 7-9.
