Happy Father's Day to all the great dads out there.

These Hugless Douglas books remind me of my husband, a great dad with a big heart... looking big and scary to some, but he's always thinking of his family. So in honour of all dads who put their families needs so often ahead of their own, this wonderful collection of books is on sale until Friday 24, June 2022. A gift of a book to read together, is really a gift of time and memories for the whole family!

"Pleeease read it again, Mommy!" my little girl requests. We've been reading the same book for 4 nights in a row and now she'd like it a second time! *sigh*

This is totally normal behaviour, in fact it is so beneficial for children of all ages to read the same book again and again.

With repetition comes mastery of vocabulary and grammar structures. Your child hasn't finished absorbing all the pictures and language and their young, spongy brains want more! Have you ever noticed that even after reading the book (for what feels like) the 100th time, your child still has questions or wonders about what they have just read? Fantastic! They're still absorbing, comprehending and mastering. Encourage it, and enjoy watching them be enthralled with new language and vocabulary.

Next time you want to hide their favourite book (yes, we've all been there), remind yourself about the value of repetition in reading for our little ones.

This lovely lift-the-flap books from one of my favourite publishers Nosy Crow has such lovely vocabulary in it - prepositional words like infront/behind, words with gestures like hello/where/there and animal sounds. There's even a mirror for some added stimulation.

We love "A Superhero like You". It's a refreshing take on showing young children that there are real "superheros" all around us - doctors, teachers, recycling-truck drivers, firefighters. Their care and bravery make them the superheros children can aspire to be like. No matter how small a child may feel, they have big powers of kindness to make them SUPER.

Books have a wonderful way of teaching children the strength they have inside. With a solid, strong message I love the empowering words and the impact they leave on my little ones.

Get this book now for only €6.50. Send your orders to [email protected].

"Let's read a lift-the-flap book!" My nearly four-year-old said last night. I've been reading the same lift-the-flap books to her since she was a baby. I realised just how versatile these books are.

They're a great way to keep young readers engaged because of how interactive they are. Not to mention they're full of surprise too. The bigger the flaps and easier to open, the better for tiny fingers... but all lift-the-flap are a hit.

These books are great for language development too with positional words like "behind", "underneath" etc being used frequently. These word are imperative when children are expanding words into sentences.

These two lovely lift-the-flap books from one of my favourite publishers Nosy Crow has such lovely vocabulary in it - prepositional words like infront/behind, words with gestures like hello/where/there and animal sounds. There's even a mirror for some added stimulation.

Recently married, my husband and I took a leap of faith and bought a plot of land to build a house that we dreamed would become our 'family home'. When we thought about what we wanted, I knew I needed a reading nook... I dreamed of a space where I would read stories to my children and together we'd go on the magical adventures on which only stories can take you.

We never ended up with a physical 'nook', but from the first day I held my baby girl we started our read aloud adventure. We've been to the Hundred Acre Wood, on top of the Magic Faraway Tree, on a Rickshaw in Durban, South Africa, on a journey to reunite two sisters in the Kenyan night sky and everywhere in between. Together our love for books grew and she will never let a day pass without settling down to read with me - no matter our moods, the hustle and bustle of everyday life or even the birth of her little brother. These moments have been some of my favourite.

After another leap of faith and immigrating to the Netherlands, we struggled to find affordable English books to fill up our home library. We decided to start a little family business to bring the same joy to other families at affordable prices. My husband immediately said, "It must be called The Book Nook... you'll finally get the nook you always wanted!"

So The Book Nook was born.
