Not a book, but great anyway!

I'm probably preaching to the converted, but has anyone else heard of First News, the newspaper for kids? I didn't even know it existed until I got an email about the relaunch of their website (I'm a journalist). It's like a really cool and interesting version of John Craven's Newsround (remember that? Or am I the only one old enough?!) It has news, but written in such a way that children grasp it (and not get disturbed by the info), then celeb stuff and science articles too. I'm getting my niece a subscription (she's 12) and soon as my daughter's old enough, she's getting one too.

These days (sorry!) kids are fed so full of irrelevant information I thought this was a real find. The website is www.firstnews.co.uk if anyone's interested.

Nope not heard of it Siski but will check your link out now - thanks.

Newsround is still on as well but John Craven doesn't present it any more. Me Dad met him in Australia a few years back and he was in good health though

if anyone's interested
