They will also gain access to the incredible vaults underground that store 99% of a museum's collections!
Stunning illustrations by Laura Martìn bring the world of a museum to life - from the high-vaulted ceilings of the entrance hall to the planetarium - with plenty of things to spot in the illustrations for eagle-eyed readers.
By the end of the book kids will have a newfound respect for all of the work that goes on to make every museum experience memorable.
