The Monkey Who Fell From The Future

I love this book

There is a lot of books similar to this by the same author I can list them if you want to know

The time tablet is amaaaazing!

I would recommend this book to everybody

I’ve read quite a few of Ross Welford’s books so far and I really like all of them they are soo good!

The Monkey who fell from the Future is a book set in the year 2425, centuries after a catastrophic meteor collision. In a small town in England, young Ocean Mooney and the monkey-owning Duke Smiff have just dug up a 400-year-old tablet computer!

Meanwhile, in the present day. Thomas Reeve and his genius cousin Kylie create the Time Tablet - a device which they hope will allow them to communicate with the future.

But when the Time Tablet malfunctions live on television, Thomas and Kylie are sucked into the year 2425 - and have only 24 hours to return home, and save the future of humanity….

The journey is not easy and there are a couple hardships along the way! Read the book to find out more!

The book has 298 pages if you were wondering. I would recommend it to anyone 8+ who likes Sci-Fi and Dystopian fiction books, as well as anything futuristic and adventurous. Ross Welford is a great author! This book definitely made it onto my list of best books ever! It’s such a great book definitely recommend it!

Happy time travelling ~

fast paced once you get into it, great characters and I really enjoyed that the future was more how we imagine the past and this idea of a future society without tech was really interesting. Ocean is a good lead character, lovely family portrayal too

Good, I guess

In 2023 Thomas’ Australian cousin Kylie has invented a time tablet that she believes will allow communication with people 402 years in the future. The future isn’t what anyone expected though and Kylie's invention works somewhat differently to how she intended. After an asteroid carrying a germ hits the earth the population dwindles from billions down to a few million, technology is gone and much of the earth is flooded and uninhabitable.
With characters in two time zones, 2023 and 2425 but in the same place, Newcastle-upon-Tyne the story is cleverly written as the differences in time are explored and solutions sought. The characters are great, believable, colourful and fun, however there is also a great deal of irritating language with the characters in the future speaking differently, often dropping the first syllables of words such as ‘citing and ‘cept which make it a harder read than it needs to be.
