The character of Sir Sydney Dinkum is designed to bring enjoyment, humor and adventure to young readers. More importantly, however, the books strive to enlighten and educate.
The central theme within the books explores how one should attempt to be the best they can be. What does it mean to be a good mate to others? Why is it wrong to lie? Why is it important to never break a promise? These and other important questions are integral to Sydney's growth and maturity.
Told in a fun and easy manner, Sir Sydney's story helps developing readers find their way through the often difficult process of growing up. Not every reader will become a knight as Sir Sydney does, but we believe by living vicariously through him children will become better human beings and more aware of the choices we all must make.
In addition to the life lessons Sir Sydney explores, the books are also meant to expand the reader's cognitive and reading skills. As anyone who knows Sydney will tell you, words are everything to him. In fact, on page one of the first book of the Sir Sydney series, that's exactly what it says.
Done in a gentle fashion, new vocabulary is constantly being introduced. Sentence structure gradually advances throughout the series, and thematic content becomes more in-depth. Figures of speech such as similes, metaphors and personification are also explored in an easy and understandable fashion.
Your child will fall in love with Sydney, Sancho, Rosie and the other characters they meet. By relating to them in their own personal way they will have great fun following the adventures while at the same time expanding their minds and horizons.
