  Where I Live is a series looking at communities across the United Kingdom. In each case, a local person guides the reader around the area in which they live, talking about jobs and opportunities, housing, leisure activities and the people who live there. In this book, the guide is Maureen Froggitt, the postmistress for Newgate Street, a commuter village in Hertfordshire. She knows almost everyone, old-timers and newcomers alike. Neil Thomson wrote several of the When I Was Young books. This book supports the geography area of the National Curriculum at Key Stage 2. It provides resource material for anyone interested in researching their local community and is illustrated with specially-taken photographs of the community. A Things to Do section is included at the back of the book.
