Let's make the best den in the whole wide world.' The great
outdoors are waiting, ready to be filled with excitement and
imagination. Explore the fun that can be had outdoors in all
weathers and count how many children have gone outside to play in
this joyful celebration of imaginative play and the simple pleasure
of spending time outside everyday... and cosying up indoors at the

are discussion prompts and outdoor activity suggestions, all ready
for parents and children to say... LET'S GO OUTSIDE!
This book is designed to help teachers develop well-structured and
progressive programs of gymnastics activities for primary-aged
children (3-11 years). In gymnastics, children learn not only how
their bodies move and how body parts work in co-operation with
other parts, but they are also able to develop awareness of space
and a sense of control. Practical Primary Gymnastics presents
themed activities appropriate for infant, junior and upper junior
levels, and shows how teachers can plan to use these in structured
themes of work. The activities aim to broaden children's abilities
in: jumping and landing skills; rolling actions; taking weight on
different body parts; using a range of traveling actions; and
working at floor level and using gymnastic apparatus at varying
heights. Gymnastics is a fundamental part of the PE curriculum.
This book offers practical help for teachers in this vital area and
focuses on enabling individual children to succeed at their own
level.
Didier Drogba is best known for his career at Chelsea, whose
supporters voted him the club's greatest ever player, where he
scored more goals than any other foreign player and is the club's
fourth highest goal scorer of all time. He became the only player
in history to score in four separate FA Cup finals when he scored
in Chelsea's win over Liverpool in the 2012 final. Drogba has
captained the Ivory Coast national team since 2006 and is the
nation's all-time top goal scorer with 62 goals. He captained the
team in the World Cup in 2014. He was named African Footballer of
the Year in 2006 and 2009. In October 2013, he became the first
African footballer to win the prestigious Golden Foot while playing
for Galatasaray. This cartoon book biography describes the
childhood and schooldays of little 'Tito', his first visit to
France, how he had to study and get away to play football. It
follows him to his first successes with the teams of Le Mans and
Guingamp, his happy time with Olympic Marseilles and his initial
reluctance to move to Chelsea. Meanwhile, he falls in love and
becomes a father. He is also badly affected by the crisis that
breaks out in Ivory Coast and, at an early age, he shows his hatred
of violence and war. The images are vividly drawn and the story is
full of humour and excitement. His key attributes include his
physical strength, ability in the air, and retaining possession of
the ball. This book will be appreciated by lovers of football from
the age of 8 to 80.
