Cover Story
Our cover this month features Asterix. To mark the 25th anniversary of Asterix in Britain, Hodder &Stoughton are giving the books a brand new look and releasing two omnibus editions. We are most grateful to Hodder & Stoughton for their help in using this illustration by Albert Uderzo.
My Hand is Elastic
It's not unexpected, but always so cheering, to find in these collections such lively writing and so many nuggets to read aloud and share. As you enjoy the immediacy and freshness of young authors at their best, you wonder what occasions allowed this creativity to be caught in writing - and how much more exists in the children you teach, if only it could be released? A book all teachers need to read and share with their pupils.
