Critic Reviews

“The perfect book for our times. Full of verve, insight and a sense of fun, this is an introduction to politics that young people will love (and parents will learn from too!). Strongly recommended.”

Full of insight and fun, this is a book that young people will love (and parents will learn from too!). -- Matthew Syed

-- Miranda Hart
This superb book will inspire children to question and understand more about the world in which they live. BookTrust
This funny and interactive read is an entertaining way to learn about politics. The Week Junior
This book is a fantastic explainer as to why the world works the way it does, and how to get involved and make a change for the better. It's essential for those of us fortunate enough to be making decisions on policy to listen to young people and to act with them in mind - after all, the decisions we make now are the ones they will inherit. Rich's book is a great primer for young people to get involved and influence the world around them. -- Simon Fell MP, co-chair of the UK’s All Party Parliamentary Group for Political Literacy
