  • The Cheese Wedge of Doom - A Fledge Town Story

    "Help, I've cheese on my floor." The actions of a greedy seagull result in a Fledge Town disaster. Who can help?  Which Lina bird has the skills needed to fix Bud's roof? This novel is one from a collection of Fledge Town stories, designed to help children explore their identity, interests and strengths, without imposing traditional gender-stereotyped job titles.  Instead, children reflect on ‘roles and community challenges’. The Fledge Town career education programme guides children through the discovery of what they enjoy and to imagine their own Lina “bird”, based on their skills and preferences. The Cheese Wedge of Doom is both fun and educational.
