lightweight, but could have been more compact
Bought for my 10 yr old grandson. I read through the book even though I already knew about Songster, It contained some details about WW1 but could have contained more but as the book is intended for children 'less is more' I guess. I will await my grandson's comments with interest when he reads the book over Xmas
