|title=Time Atlas: An Interactive Timeline of History
|rating=3.5
|genre=Children's Non-Fiction
|summary=While it's always useful for a child to have access to an atlas, so they know where they are and what there is in every other location, it's equally important that they know ''when'' they are, and what has happened at any other place in time.

|summary=The [[In Focus: 101 Close Ups, Cross-Sections and Cutaways by Libby Walden|first book in this series]] promised 101 close-ups, cross sections and/or cutways, but here we're restricted to just ten. Why? Because the subject matters are so much bigger – one is home to 37 million people, of all things. Yes, we're talking cities, and while this book tries to follow the previous – different artist every page, an exclusive inside look within the volume, and a self-deceiving page count – we are definitely in new territory. We're seeking the trivial, the geographical and the cultural, all so that the inquisitive young student can find out the variety to be had in the world's metropolises.
