Pretty sure this will be in my top 10 #FavePicturebooks24 (weâre only in April)
âTwo Togetherâ 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.
Laugh out loud hilarious as well as deeply moving- this is a very special text. đĽ˛Thanks Simon Smith for recc.
Somehow intimate, captures relationships authentically and sings off the page Simon James Green đđ
Loving the range of amazing books being used to support our childrenâs learning.

Fantastic bit of bookpost from Walker Books todayâŚyes I am already reading the new Kate DiCamillo.
Really looking forward to diving into these.
âTerrible Horsesâ by đŚťđ˝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

âDonât Trust Catsâ 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. Boldtâs 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 canât be a bad ratio.

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.
âThe Rock in my Throatâ by Kao Kalia Yang and Jiemei Lin gives us real insight into a young immigrantâs experience. Based on Kaliaâs own story it sings with truth. Text and art combine to create a poignant and important book. #PicturebookPage
