A Time Traveller's Guide to Life follows Einstein and his traveling companion through space and time; this innovative graphic novel pairs the narrative with fantastic, whimsical artwork to make difficult concepts clear - and explain life, the universe and (almost) everything!

Journey through space and time on a beam of light with the ultimate travel guide: Albert Einstein!

Einstein said his first ideas about relativity came from looking in the mirror and wondering what it would be like to chase after a beam of light. In this graphic novel, he invites us on just such a journey through the universe . . . and beyond.

Along the way, you’ll learn about the science behind everything from the origins of the universe to black holes, climate change, evolution vs. intelligent design, and the meaning of life.
