    Dear members in Corpora,

    Can anyone give a hand where we can find a kid's magazine (for Graders 4-7)
    published in British English? This will be used as a "reference" text for a
    frequency count on multi-word verbal phrases used in the magazine (examples
    like "bring up," "go into," "take away," …).

    A student of mine is interested in researching a topic dealing with the
    verbal phrases used in the local English textbooks. She needs contemporary
    reference corpora both from American English and British English. For the
    former, I suggest her to use the articles in TIME for Kids (
    http://www.timeforkids.com/TFK/magazines/archive). However, I have no idea
    for a similar one published in British English available online.

    Your guiding would be highly appreciated.
