Major Glad, Major Dizzy
Major Glad, Major DizzyMajor Glad, Major Dizzy is a story about two toy soldiers hidden beneath the floor of a London house in 1870, during the reign of Queen Victoria. As years go by, the children who once owned the toys grow up and have children of their own, and unknown to Major Glad and Major Dizzy, all kinds of changes happen above their heads until, when they are finally rescued 140 years later, the world they knew is almost unrecognisable.
This book should appeal to children aged from 5 – 9 years, and will entertainingly introduce the topic of recent British history. Warning! You may like to position a grandparent nearby to answer the questions that will ensue. Author: Jan Oke

Major boss book again!
My now ten yr old who still loves Naughty Bus relished this new one as a history point. I wish the authors would do more along the lines of emotional intelligence for children with disabilities. Their knack for great text and photographs would work well it delighted me too and I keep seeing into the pictures each time I read it to my 5,7 and 10 yr old. Yes buy it!
