Media Reviews
'Read and enjoy.' -- Jubileebooks.co.uk 'lovely books to have in the school library and would make a useful adjunct to any relevant study.' -- Primary Geographer 20030101 '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 20030101
