This series uses child-friendly stories and illustrations to show how conflict situations can be resolved. Each book contains two stories set in a primary school which can encourage children to relate to their everyday experiences. The range of behavior that needs resolving is not simply solved by adult intervention, often the children are able to sort the problem out themselves. At the end of each book there is a page asking children to think about the situations that arose in the stories and to think about how they would behave if they were one of the characters.

Bringing together the most popular of the best-selling "Shakespeare for Everyone" titles in a single volume, this book is packed with information on the background to each play, character studies and the story of the plays told in accessible modern language. Watercolour illustrations showing key events in the plot or particular character traits provide an accompaniment to the text which is peppered with quotes from the original plays providing a real flavour of Shakespeare's language.

This is part of a series which explores the development of systems of recording and measuring, from the first forms of writing and the earliest calendars, to the latest in calculators and quartz clocks. Innovators, inventions and amazing facts are highlighted in text boxes, and there are suggestions for related activities. This book reveals the first methods of keeping tally, the first numerals and the invention of "zero". The book also looks at the achievements of some of the early mathematicians and traces the development of computers and calculators which have helped modern scientists to develop new mathematical theories, and simplified life at home and at work.
