Reviews
Dom and Cath have a track record for igniting literacy outside the four walls of the classroom and giving it meaning and worth in the real world. This book can help all teachers do the same. -- Andrew Jennings * Assistant headteacher and founder of Vocabulary Ninja, @VocabularyNinja *
The most important book in the world right now. -- Sam Conniff * Author of 'Be More Pirate', @SamConniff *
'This is a practical guide that is project-based and has been proven to accelerate progress in KS2. The structure can be adapted for inclusion and it provides a fresh approach to ways to make literacy more relevant in terms of articulating concerns about current issues.' * SEN Magazine *
