Journey MakersThe First WheelCover coming soon
A copy of the oldest wooden wheel in the world arrives at the Wheelhouse, and the hole in the middle of it is square. Then the ticket machine prints a ticket dated about 3150 BC, and Ollie and Zara step out above the Ljubljana Marshes, where a cart with a broken axle must carry a new post across the marsh before the autumn rains drown the track. Zara is sure she knows how a wheel should turn.

About the Journey Makers series
Journey Makers is a series of illustrated adventures for readers aged ten to twelve about transport and travel, from the first wheel to the first trains, ships, cars and planes. Ollie, who is sure the engine is everything, and Zara, who reads every map, help out at a small transport museum where an old ticket machine prints tickets for real journeys from the past. Each book rides one famous first journey from start to finish and shows what it really took to get there.
