Sounds Magic
Curious Adventures in Illustration
Each time I meet an author I am really inspired by their creativity and talent. What inspires me most about Judith is that she clearly gets great joy from her work, and this is evident when she talks about it and shares it with others.
The Most Marvellous Spelling Bee Mystery
India Wimple could spell. Brilliantly. So brilliantly...she is endearing and considering, kind and always putting others before herself. She is also known to be able to chase a mystery...especially at the International Spelling Bee in London.
The Tales of Mr Walker
This book teaches children how to be kind to animals demonstrates kindness and love, shows how it is important for everyone to be loved and cared for, and how to give back to the community.
The Aussie ABC Christmas
I find this book particularly endearing and recognise that it would make a lovely one on one story session with a children and a good way to celebrate Christmas.
Santa Claus Vs The Easter Bunny
Who would have thought that the Easter Bunny would get his knickers in a knot and be so jealous of Santa Clause? I know, I was surprised too, I have always thought of them as being the cheeriest best of friends, living in harmony, and enjoying the celebrations of each other’s jobs.
2018 Notable Junior Series
This year I have read so many Junior series but have been unable to share them all. Here are four series that are funny, silly and sometimes a little gross.
Ho! Ho! Ho! There’s a Hippopotamus on Our Roof Eating Christmas Cake
Ho! Ho! Ho! There is a Hippopotamus on Our Roof Eating Christmas Cake, dancing, sitting on a Christmas tree and making a list for Santa. Hazel Edwards delights us with the imagination of a child and the celebration of Christmas.
The Brave Knight
A young knight (boy), protects his castle (his play equipment) with a (cardboard) sword. Beware, he is watching and listening and inspiring the imagination of children.
Diary of a Wimpy Kid – The Meltdown
Jeff Kinney you have done it again, The Meltdown is bound to be a Wimpy Kid fan favourite and had me engrossed from beginning to end. Greg Heffley kept me entertained and had me hooked from the beginning, when his imagination runs wild - thinking about his own talking toilet, unfrozen cavemen and cyborg legs so he can sleep on his way to school.
