Résumé :

Kpop Demon Hunters meets Back to the Future in a laugh-out-loud time-travel adventure for fans of Jenny Pearson, David Solomons and all things K-pop, dance and music!

When Skylar and best friend Dana accept a ride in Nana's new tuktuk, they don't expect to travel through time - nor to accidentally kidnap Ancient Egyptian Pharaoh King Tut and turn him into a K-pop sensation! Soon Skylar and Dana are on a whirlwind race through time to put things right before they change history for ever...

Giving history a K-pop glow-up, this is a hilarious and life-affirming time-travel adventure starring famous historical figures as you've never seen them before - from the funniest voice in fiction for readers 8, 9, 10, 11. And don't miss Skylar's body-swap adventure in Skylar and the K-pop Headteacher.

Totally eccentric and chaotic, but good fun, and readers will pick up some historical and scientific knowledge, especially from Dana, along the way. Books for Keeps

Laugh out loud funny, filled with friendship and fun, this was a brilliant book about change, letting your friends grow, appreciating what you have got, love and friendship... and not forgetting fandom, of course! Mini Travellers

[An] engaging, fast paced yarn. The Letterpress Project

This wonderful story will keep you on your toes and laughing. Armadillo Magazine
