The motion

That the Parliament congratulates children from Just Be Kids nursery, based in Darnley, on publishing their second book, The Campfire Club Builds a Book, which contains the children’s own tales of sad bats, grumpy stars and T-rex dinosaurs; understands that the book began with the kid's campfire series, which saw the children aged between three and five gather around the fire and hear folk tales from all around the world, before creating new tales of their own; notes that the book follows the publication of Sparkle Stories in 2023, which was the children’s first book; understands that Sparkle Stories was born out of the nursery looking for a way to promote literacy in a fun manner; understands that the new book has not just been an incredible product of creativity and imagination, but is also a source of encouragement and excitement to those children who struggled to engage with reading and writing, and understands that the children all have a copy of their book, and are hopefully looking to host a book signing on World Book Day.
