Just received a copy of Justin Anderson's beautiful book Super Swift.
The story is divine and Clover Robin's illustrations second to none.
Just in time for school talks too!

Finally got a copy of “The Last Zookeeper” by Aaron Becker. I know others have shared it but I couldn’t not. The visual storytelling in this book is utterly extraordinary, it’s rich in pathos and emotion without a single word. A modern day Noah’s Ark. Magical.

Down on the farm, it’s time to sleep.
So sheepdog, Sam, rounds up the sheep… 🐑🐑

“This farmyard picture book is an entertaining read and the colourful illustrations are full of amusing details.” BookTrust Nikki Dyson Michelle Robinson

. Well, obviously not new but published a few days ago in a new format in My Very Busy Day. Most depictions of children in illustration are simplified. But Shirley Hughes drew everything about how they looked, gestured, stood and moved. Walker Picture Books

. Briony May Smith brings cosiness, firelight and togetherness to the usually bleak tale of the short lives of the Bronte siblings. The Little Books of the Little Brontes by Sara O'Leary is about how they made tiny storybooks in childhood. Walker Picture Books
