First, they are an original and very useful resource for assemblies or collective worship. Each story is accompanied by a concluding piece, which explores the theme of the story and provides ‘food for thought’, for those moments of reflection. The theme is explored in general terms and, in addition, with a Christian emphasis so that those leading the session may choose the most appropriate for their situation.
Second, the stories are equally useful as a valuable resource for PSHME (Personal, Social, Health and Moral Education). Each story can be used as a starting point to help explore a particular issue. In addition, there is a selection of questions at the end of each story to aid or prompt discussion.
However you choose to use this book, it is an accessible, fun and a stress-free resource for the busy teacher.
