First News has published a special commemorative issue to remember Queen Elizabeth II. Inside this special issue, we look back at the life of Queen Elizabeth II. Read all about her early years, her coronation, her wedding dress, her work and her favourite pets.
The six-page special report has been written specifically to help teachers, parents and children understand what’s happening, presenting the events in a non-sensationalised and unbiased way. We also showcase some of the positive actions and people that have come out of this terrible event, to show children there are more good people than bad in the world.
