💗 MEET THE TEAM 💗

Here’s one of my Book Reviewers

She’s a reading machine

Can’t stop

Won’t stop

She’s a confirmed reader

A real bookworm

And she’ll read anywhere

Any time. Any place. Anywhere**

📚 Do your kids like reading? What unusual places have you found them tucking into a book? 📚

💡 If you need any book ideas, ping us a message and we’ll be happy to help 💡

😂 Make sure you have the SOUND ON…

❤️ We love the sounds of the animals on the farm….

….especially the little lamb sucking on the bottle 🐑

❤️ But my very favourite is the squelchy sound of the muddy welly! (Not shown in the video as I don’t want to ruin the surprise!)

❤️ The illustrations are fab - there are lots of things to spot and count, and some fun ways to teach your little one colours

👉 To order your copy, send me a message

When’s the last time you lay in bed in the morning and read a book? *not a children’s book

I spend so much time talking about books, researching books, recommending books and selling books

But not nearly enough time reading books *apart from children’s books

But, it’s Christmas Eve…the kids are watching TV and playing with the cat who has adopted us

…and me?

…you’ll find me in bed, with a cup of Yorkshire tea and a new book 🥰
*an adult’s book

What are you up to this Christmas Eve? Are you going to make a little bit of time just for you?

Whatever you do this festive period, take a little bit of space for you. And make a little bit of time for books.

….because books aren’t just for children 😉

⚽️ If a child who is struggling with reading has a passion…

🤗…embrace it and make it part of their reading journey!

📚 Flick across to check just a few of our books for football-mad kids!

👉 Message me to order or to see sample pages

📕 ‘The Unlucky Eleven’ by Phil Earle - Everything is going wrong for the Saints and they think they’ve been cursed! The team’s attempts to break the curse take things from bad to worse! Step forward Stanley to take the most important free-kick of his life!

📕 ‘Football Mad! Own Goal!’ by Paul Stewart - Dale Juniors are about to win the cup final! Then disaster strikes as Scott scores an own goal. After the match, he sees a nasty message about him on the wall. The prime suspect is his best mate, Danny. Could Danny have turned against him?

📕 ‘Keeper’ by Alan Gibbons - New boy Shane Logan is a talented goalie…with a temper. He delivers a star performance in the first match. His dad, Mick, also makes an impression with yells and orders from the sideline. What is Mick’s problem? And why does Shane seem afraid of him?

📕 ‘The Dog that Saved the World’ by Phil Earle - Pickles the dog and Elsie love football. So they’re delighted when Elsie’s team gets to play in a half-time match at the World Cup final at Wembley! But then Elsie’s dad loses his job and they have to move. With Elsie’s dreams of playing at Wembley shattered, Pickles decides that it’s up to him to save the world (cup)!

Extra (time) info: Those clever folk at Barrington Stoke have used dyslexia-friendly layout, typeface and paperstock to make each of these books accessible to more readers.

❤️ If you have a struggling reader or a reader with dyslexia, we now have a lovely range of these books in stock. Just message me for information ❤️

Do your kids’ teddies get books when they’re on holiday?

Every holiday, we get a new baby book in Italian from the supermarket

This one is for Piggie* (left)

It’s her first trip to Italy and Bananas is teaching her the lingo

Bananas (right) can hold his own in Italian as you’d expect**

*yes - we know she’s not actually a piggie

** Bananas was born in in Pisa and returns to his birthplace several times a year
