Voltaire’s razor-sharp satire on philosophical optimism Candide is coupled here with another of the author’s most celebrated works, Zadig. Both challenge the moral and philosophical orthodoxies of the day with humour and sly wit, whilst parodying the clichéd formulas of so many contemporary novels. Candide traces the fortunes of its titular character, a staunch optimist who eventually becomes disillusioned by a series of hardships and misfortunes. Zadig likewise follows its main character Zadig, a Babylonian philosopher, as he is subjected to the whims of Fate and the machina tions of those around him.

The concept of creativity presented in this book is one of connecting different frames of reference to create humour, discovery or works of art. It is about opening the mind to perceive things in alternative ways. The concept of creative teaching similarly is about using those connections to help children learn through a range of representations, teaching approaches and activities, which enable children to be active agents in their own learning.
