WILLIAM WILBERFORCE
By Andrew Edwards & Fleur Thornton
Day One. 32 A4 pages. £3.00
ISBN 1 084625 028 5

The fourth in a set of children’s workbook / non-fiction texts on key British Christian men in the Footsteps of the Past series. (Bunyan, Booth and Carey precede, C.S. Lewis and Newton are due to follow), this book is pitched at an independent reading age of around eight or nine and the activity interest level has a ceiling of 11 years.

Wilberforce’s life is told through paired pages of facts and activities. The text is interspersed with pictures and fact boxes, enabling an easier read. Handy links are made to the Travel With William Wilberforce book, also available from Day One, allowing for more in-depth exploration.
