When she misses one question on her history test (she incorrectly answers that Belgium is the location of the oldest prehistoric cave paintings), she travels via time machine to prehistoric Belgium to alter history and ensure that her answer is correct. The studious, pigtailed girl whose science project got out of hand in Oh No! hasn't quite learned her lesson.
Blueprints for the time machine and a fourth-dimension transit map are appended.-Barthelmess, Thom Copyright 2010 Booklist From Booklist, Copyright (c) American Library Association.
An abundance of clever details and historical allusions make the final punch line extra punchy. Both story and pictures ramp up the naturally cinematic quality, with visible striations in the illustrations mimicking celluloid projection and a full-on movie poster on the reverse of the dust jacket. After a few missed calibrations and consequential encounters with a 25,000,000-year-old tetrapod and Napoleon, she arrives at her intended destination just in time to tag her cave and loan the time machine to a pair of curious cavemen who wreak some havoc of their own. To correct the only incorrect answer on her history test, she constructs a time machine and travels back in time, forging a prehistoric cave painting to make world history conform to her mistake. Our super smart scholar is back, this time applying her errant brilliance to the past. In Oh No! (2010), Barnett and Santat introduced an overachieving student whose science-fair robot terrorizes the city in hilarious B-movie fashion.
