“Roll double six or double three, let’s learn about your history.”

Join Aniyah, EJ and Olivia as they play their Ludi board game and are transported to another action-packed adventure back in time, helping real people from history and solving exciting mysteries along the way.

It’s Notting Hill Carnival time! Olivia, EJ and Aniyah have been transported to 1950s London, and they’re about to meet Claudia Jones, who organised the first carnival in Britain. Will the children be able to put their skills to use and help get the carnival up and running?

This exciting book is one of several action-packed adventure stories from Black history, written and illustrated by Nadine Cowan.

Sapphire/Band 16 books offer longer reads to develop children's sustained engagement with texts and are more complex syntactically.

Ideas for reading in the back of the book provide practical support and stimulating activities.
