Looking for yesterday is a lyrical, exquisitely-illustrated adventure through time and a heartfelt entreaty not to dwell in the past but look to the future — for our greatest adventures are still ahead of us. (A lesson that adults need to learn just as much as children.) It is also a poignant portrayal of a relationship between grandson and grandad and a lovely synthesis of scientific concepts and realms of the imagination.
