Book description
Rather than explaining our origins, A Brief History of Tim
addresses our history and culture at the level
we most deeply desire - the trivial. By simply removing one letter,
the world is tweaked with immensely enjoyable results:
For those who think contemporary art is a load of rubbish, there's
the Tat Modern.
Find out about the Ancient Geeks, nerdy types who spent far too much
time doing maths.
A Brief History of Tim is laugh-out-loud funny and will have
you looking at the world through fresh eyes.
Writer Kathy Clugston is a freelance broadcaster, who is often

in a Radio Ulster comedy series and in people's cars as a Sat Nav
voice. She lives in London, plays the ukulele and has no sense of
smell.
Illustrator Tom McLaughlin spent years as a political cartoonist,
but now works mainly in animation and on children's books. He has

Mystery and is currently writing his first children's book called
