The Greatest (FYI: Fiction with Stacks of Facts)

by Alan Gibbons (Author)

Synopsis

First-class, award-winning authors interweave a gripping narrative with stacks of fun facts. This work caters particularly for the tastes of reluctant readers who would rather read about topics they're interested in than fiction - especially suitable for boys. It features fun, top-quality illustrations on almost every page. It is tested by consultants at every stage of production. Chris is the best boxer in the county. He's been picking on Ali for ages. Now Ali has to stand up for himself - just like his hero, Muhammed Ali. It's time to go in...and win?

I think the idea is wonderful. It is predominately boys who experience difficulties with reading and they do love facts. Sue Byrne, Parkgate Primary School, Wirral
