Recommended Read- An inspiring picture book for the leaders of tomorrow!

26 April 2023 (by Megan Thomas (MThomas))

If I Were Prime Minister by Trygve Skaug (author) and Ella Okstad (illustrator)

At Andoversford, we encourage our children to ASPIRE to great things and change the world! This superb, inspiring new picture book from Norwegian author Trygve Skaug gets children thinking about how they would do just that!

"If I were prime minister, everyone who wanted a dog would get a dog
everyone who wanted a bike would get a bike
and everyone who wanted a friend would get at least two."

A young boy gives his perspective on several things the grown-ups running the country could do differently. His recommendations are both playful and profound.

How much happier would we be if all the adults went to nursery once a month to remind themselves how to play?

How much safer would we be if Christmas lights were left up all year round to light everyone’s way home?

This gorgeously-illustrated picture book is for all those children who dare to dream big and for all those adults who want to look on the world with fresh eyes.

Suitable for all ages: enjoyable for ages 5+, but thought-provoking for older children!

Available for pre-order now- released next week!
