Product description

What are values? They’re the basis of how we choose to behave; our judgement of what matters in life. Freedom of speech, having good manners, caring about the environment: these things are all values. Your values matter. But in a community, it’s important to respect other people’s values too. In this book you’ll learn about government and democracy. Democracy means that people have the right to choose their own government. In Britain, this is one of our key social values. But the world still has lots of dictatorships where grown-up bullies take control, and don’t allow other people to have rights…

Colourful and positive look at everyday values in action

Emphasises children’s role in a global multicultural world

Explores a topical, high-interest social and political issue

Simple examples that clarify values and their social role
