A child-centred book that includes every fact, figure, statistic and hidden secret of London life that will be of interest to children.
The cover tells us that this book has 'Everything you need to know about
London and more...' An ambitious claim, but this book does pack in an enormous
amount of information. The best thing is that much of it is unusual - this
certainly isn't your ordinary guide book. It's a fascinating read and a great
book to dip into and learn some fascinating facts to fascinate your friends and
family - it's an excellent book for any lover of trivia. Broadly arranged by
history, you will learn about art and architecture, landmarks, hidden places,
ghosts, pearly kings and queens, festivals, street names, games, traditions,
markets, football teams, and much, much more. On just one two page spread, there
is London lingo, Georgian houses, Georgian secrets, a poem and a recipe - I can
only give a small flavour of the contents here - but do get yourself a copy of
this book! - Parents in Touch
'With a sharply honed instinct for what engages children they have picked out the golden nuggets of London’ s colourful story and dished it up in a witty, compelling and easily digestible style.' - Parent's Directory
