A quick plug for a book that I spotted for sale down at WDYTYA - "Family History for Kids" by Emma Jolly. It's a great wee book that can get the we'uns involved from a young age, and whilst designed for children following the English and Welsh National Curriculum, it is not specific to history down south, and is just as useful for Scottish based kids wishing to learn about and record their history. I met Emma at WDYTYA, she spent some considerable time and effort to get the book right for her audience, and the quality really shows. Worth every penny! For more info, visit Emma's site at http://www.genealogic.co.uk/10.html or the publisher, Pymer Quantrill, at www.pqpublishing.com.
