Our Review Panel says...

A handy, clear guide to all things political explained through accessible text and appealing, infographic-stye illustrations. Aimed for 8-11 year-olds, this book does a brilliant job of explaining key aspects of the British political system (including who can vote and how votes are counted) as well as wider concepts like freedom of speech, global responsibility and the media’s impact on political results.
