In this edition, we explore the importance of encouragement because what we believe our children can do and achieve, influences what they see as possible for themselves! We also celebrate PRAESA’s win of The Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award (ALMA) – the biggest children’s literature award in the world! PLUS we have three new stories for you: ‘Long trousers’ by Maryanne
and Shayle Bester (Jacana), ‘Journey’ which is collection of stories written by children (Parliamentary Millennium Programme) AND ‘Thoko’s special soup’ written and illustrated Niki Daly.
