Last but not least, before Christmas a wonderful book for young learners was published, called“ Peace Plan”. Would you share with us how you came up with the idea and also how teachers and parents can obtain a copy?
A few months ago, a friend who works as a supply teacher asked if I knew any storybooks about peace, empathy and tolerance. I didn ' t, so I spoke to Julie G. Fox, the creator of Clever Fox Press, and she said ' Let ' s write one!' and the Peace Plan was born. The story takes place in Bluebell Wood, which is a magical place, but the animals don’ t get along very well and have been squabbling a lot. Brave Badger and Clever Fox come up with a Peace Plan to make the wood a kinder place to live. But will everyone agree?

Julie Pratten kindly shares one of her“ Love” activites with us. Thank you, Julie!
Spread the Love
Teacher’ s notes
Valentine ' s Day, which is on 14 February, is usually associated with romantic love. Although it is a lovely gesture to remember your ' romantic ' partner on this day with a bunch of flowers, a card or a special surprise, how about if we also spread a little love in our communities? This simple activity encourages our students to reflect for a moment how they could spread love in their community.
Photocopy enough copies of the heart sheet and give each member of the class a heart. Ask them to reflect for a moment. What could they do in their local community to spread a little love? It could be at home, at school or in the neighbourhood. Each student can write their ideas on the heart and then compare with other members of the group. After this, they could discuss and choose the best ideas in groups. Finally. The students could make ' Spread the Love ' posters and put them around the school.
