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.
