Ben Lerwill
A warm introduction to football as something people can enjoy together, whether playing in a major stadium or an informal outdoor space. It foregrounds shared participation and belonging rather than competition, expertise or football celebrity.
Rhian Tracey
A gently suspenseful wartime adventure with a strong historical setting. It combines a secret mission and possible betrayal with village tensions, friendship, refugee experience, and the practical importance of art, music and community.
Rebecca Upjohn, Renne Benoit
This is a child-focused historical account of persecution, concealment and courage during the Holocaust. Its central contrast is between a community’s ridicule of Anton and his decision to protect Jewish neighbours at great personal risk.
Jerome Pohlen
A chronological introduction to LGBT civil-rights history, told through people’s experiences, major struggles and contributions. Its creative activities make the subject participatory, while the historical scope connects earlier activism with more recent events.
David Roberts
Choose this deliberately as an introduction to LGBTQ+ history and activism; its subject should be clear before a family decides to read it.
