Celebration Stories

Well written and will hold a reader's attention long enough to be read in one go ... The real-life element extends their use into ... history, geography and citizenship ... Books like these have a valuable role to play in informing impressionable youngsters about their neighbours -- Armadillo 20021101 'an attractive new series which manages to use lively, well-illustrated fiction as a back-drop for RE, Citizenship and PSHE without being off-puttingly didactic or preachy.' -- School Librarian Journal, Winter 2002
