I have used Little but Fierce with adults and children and it works great for both. It is a fabulous entry into D&D style roleplay without the mountains of things to learn. It is accessible, great fun to play and highly recommended, and this new version looks fab.
Can I ask a favour?
Life has been really tough lately due to terminal family illness and I just haven’t had the spoons for decent self promotion.
Could you please give the “Little but Fierce” kickstarter prelaunch page a repost (and maybe a follow)?

There are so many benefits to reading for pleasure, and is there anything better than having some time over the Christmas period to enjoy a good book?📚️

This looks very interesting. What good software packages exist? is a question I get asked a lot by smaller schools with limited budgets who are trying to manage and loan their book collections. I would love to hear from anyone who has used this system.
Resource feature on our website: Book Collector Software Ideal for classroom libraries or for schools with limited budgets schoolreadinglist.co.uk/resources/bo... #teachersofx
Book Collector Software
At under £40 per year, Book Collector is much more affordable than dedicated school library software for smaller schools.
