Pretty sure this will be in my top 10 #FavePicturebooks24 (we’re only in April)

“Two Together” by Brendan Wenzel is a truly joyous book about, perspectives, adventures and love. The art is simply stunning with clever use of materials adding to the story-telling #PicturebookPage

If anybody knows some fantastic #WordlessWonders picturebooks suitable for a yoinger child, please share.

God I’m bored of “cognitive load” being used to justify anything and everything.

It really has lost all value as a term and is just empty air.

Laugh out loud hilarious as well as deeply moving- this is a very special text. 🥲Thanks Simon Smith for recc.
Somehow intimate, captures relationships authentically and sings off the page Simon James Green 👏👏

Imagine how beautiful and inspiring a school environment could be…then there is this. Soul-destroying ableist mantras that apparently equate as culture and ethos

It’s just like a bookshop.

My favourite space in the whole school.

Loving the range of amazing books being used to support our children’s learning.

So much broader and wider #MoreIsMore

We all know the “Big Listen” is not really about listening, it’s very much about maintaining the status quo.

The government’s announcement about single word judgements today sums up that there will be no change, no listening and no difference.

Fantastic bit of bookpost from Walker Books today…yes I am already reading the new Kate DiCamillo.

Really looking forward to diving into these.

“Terrible Horses” by 🦻🏽Raymond Antrobus and Ken Wilson-Max is a fantastic book about a sibling relationship. It wonderfully captures the push and pulls of the relationship and developing empathy for the other person. Brilliantly told in word and art. #PicturebookPage

This is a readaloud riot…

“Don’t Trust Cats” by Dev Petty and Mike Boldt is just brilliant fun. Chip, our canine narrator, is a joy to listen to and the dogs world view is fantastic. Boldt’s illustration are zany and full of humour. Fab to share with a class #PicturebookPage

Last saw most of these good people 30 years ago on our PGCE, 5 are still working in schools which can’t be a bad ratio.

#30YearReunion

Whatever your thoughts on using #Shakespeare in the primary classroom, this a wonderful resource. It is beautifully illustrated by #EmilySutton , with brilliantly abridged texts that for all 36 plays. A fantastic and rich resource for primary schools Shakespeare B Trust

What a powerful book this is.

“The Rock in my Throat” by Kao Kalia Yang and Jiemei Lin gives us real insight into a young immigrant’s experience. Based on Kalia’s own story it sings with truth. Text and art combine to create a poignant and important book. #PicturebookPage

'The true measure of any society can be found in how it treats its most vulnerable members.'

Don’t know who said it there is a lot of disagreement about that. However it couldn’t be more true than today. We have become the lowest.
