The Four is about the inseparable friendship of four children from different ethnic backgrounds when they are trapped inside their school building after an accident.

The story of the children is encouraging and is set to expand into other learning curves and adventures... Enjoy Book One – Friends for Life.

George Rosling, born in Glasgow in 1960, has a wife, Lisa, and two children, Graeme and Eva. He is in the process of releasing a series of children's books that involve children from different ethnic backgrounds. He will introduce kids at an early age to cultural awareness and religious education. In this multi-cultural society he is looking to encourage the children to teach the adults all about their friends' religions, cultures and beliefs.


Rosling will have the children participating in various adventures that will involve each culture in tandem, and show how the children enjoy sharing their celebrations with each other as well as with their families. He is an avid believer in equality for all races and religions and wants to bring this across in this series of books for children.

    A must read for kids love it

  • Iain Hill

    Even although I don't have young children of my own I bought a copy of this book on recommendation from a friend. After reading the book and letting my neighbour also read it I was surprised how much we both enjoyed it. The concept and the camaraderie between the children was impressive and will teach the younger generation how to form friendships with each other even between children of mixed race. My neighbours 6 years old daughter thought it was good and is taking a copy into her school to show her friends. I would recommend this book to anyone as its an excellent read.

    Fantasic storyline with brilliant characters. The Author knows how to capture the imagination of the audience with an exciting story in an educational manner. Four children from different backgrounds, cultures, and nationalities, thrown together and become best friends.

    I can see many adventures coming our way.

    Highly recommended !!

  • Paul Winterbottom

    I bought the first book directly from the author and had him sign my copy. I then let my nieces read the book, they love it.
    My youngest niece has now informed me that she has made lots of new friends just like the characters in the book. We can't wait for the next one.

  • Maggie

    Was given a copy of this book and the message it presents is incredible. Cultural awareness is a must today. Through this book, the author finds a way to integrate such awareness in both an educational and entertaining manner. This is a fantastic read for primary aged children. I also recommend this book to stem discussions in R.E. and cultural lessons within primary schools. A massive well done to this author.

  • Edward McInley

    Good idea and well illustrated for a children's educational series of books. The theme of teaching kids cultural awareness at an early time in their development is awesome as its when they are most likely to take notice before other influences can affect their opinions......well done you,, Mr. Rosling.
