'I wish I could time travel with Pablo and Splash. They make me laugh so much' โ€“ Noah, age 8

When Pablo and Splash tell their cheeky friend Benji about the Vikings and their impressive longships, Benji is amazed. He's desperate to steal a time machine and go plundering for treasure with those ancient warriors. Our time-travelling heroes Pablo and Splash must get to Viking-era Ireland in time to warn the monks about the imminent invasion - and make their own mark on history.

'Pablo and Splash are hilarious. I love this book!' โ€“ Oscar, age 7
