About this book

This is another book in the excellent series, 'Enwogion o Fri'. The book succeeds in conveying the history of the politician Aneurin Bevan from his hard childhood in the valleys of south Wales, to the pinnacle of his career – establishing the National Health Service.

The success of the book lies in its way of telling Nye's life story in a simple and effective way that will grab the young reader's interest. The combination of the concise text and the unique pictures connects the young readers with the history of one of our nation's greats. It is no surprise that the book managed to win the 'Readers' Choice' prize in the Tír na nÓg prizes this year.

A great text for developing work across the curriculum, especially in the areas of: Languages, Literacy and Communication, Humanities and Health and Well-being.
