Out May 9th, Knowing the Score by Ros Roberts from Little Tiger Books is a lovely story about family secrets and the love that binds with a big tennis theme. The main character, Gemma, is hugely relatable for readers!

‘When you’re driven to work too hard you ignore what matters. People sacrifice their playfulness, the joyfulness being driven by unconscious needs to validate your existence…Joy is important…We can always be playing in the Enchanted Forest’

It's fantastic to see Ella on the Outside among these great titles

Please don't leave class storytime to videos and audiobooks. My pupils evolve after every book we share together. Relationships changed, ideas put forward, friendships built, opinions challenged, empathy developed, discussions had. It builds a class like nothing else.

Children's books deserve a much bigger share of media attention; reviews, discussion, debate, general cheerleading... It's such a huge and important part of our culture.

2 - 8 April is #AutismAcceptanceWeek . Wear lots of colour to raise awareness and try a title from our collections on BorrowBox:
