Have you ever wished you could travel back in time? Well, so does Colton! So, he decided to invent a way to make time travel possible.

As much as I enjoy writing the Colton's Pocket Dragon books, I also wanted to create another magical series continuing these stories, which would give young readers a little knowledge of history. In the Colton's Time Machine books, Colton will build a time machine and then travel back in time to important events and meet famous people. The places, events, facts, dates and people were researched and used as true to the best of my knowledge.

I hope you will enjoy reading and learning along with the dragons while Colton teaches them history.

Are your children or child into dragons? Colton's Time Machine is a spin-off of Colton's Pocket Dragons. I have another decent book about Colton and his dragon friends to read and learn about history.

In this book, "Colton's Time Machine: Lincoln, Edison and Wright Brothers," we are taken back in time to see Lincoln and learn about his unique Gettysburg address. Colton and his dragon friends help write his speech. At the same time, Lincoln tells some stories to the dragons.

Each chapter talks about a different historical figure. Edison is next. This one is about his invention of the light bulb and how we started electricity. It was not all that impressive about Edison, but that was probably me. I am not all that into learning about the light bulb. You child or children might be. We understand the history of the light bulb and many of Edison's inventions that we use today or throughout the years.

Last but not least is the Wright Brothers. This one is more fun and interesting than Colton, and his dragon friends do and enjoy. If you or your child is a fan of transportation or airplanes, they will love this part of the book. They are learning how we got started on planes and who invented them. This story is a bit more entertaining.

Children will love this book if they are into inventions or want to be an inventor. They will still learn about the stories that started it all for the things we have in today's world.
