Are you Big? By Mo Willems is all about perspective. Very simple and clever. The story is so big it starts on the #Endpapers. Entertaining and fun, with easy-to-understand factual calculations of size. #NonFiction #PicTurebook #NatLibReads

Why do books matter? Because books open eyes & hearts & minds. They can show us the world in a different light, helping us imagine other lives. Books can connect us, bringing us together, building bridges in a world of walls. They are the greatest empathy engines ever invented.

The fact that #Jellyfish have survived for centuries without a brain intrigues me. In Amazing Jellyfish Michael Stavarič brilliantly showcases varieties, survival techniques & more. Glorious illustrations from Midhèle Ganser. Dip in & out to be amazed. #NonFiction #NatLibReads

READING FOR PLEASURE has such a powerful impact on kids, it should be at the heart of everything you do with them every day. Show how them how much YOU love books. Read books to them, talk about books with them, help them find books to love. It will change their lives! #literacy

A thought for the new term. READING FOR PLEASURE is the most important thing in education. More than test scores, more than anything that can be measured, we need to help every single child fall in love with reading. It's the most life-changing gift we can give them. #literacy

Mind-controlling Bugs by Aidan Doyle &Astred Hicks will appeal to any kid who has aspirations to become a #Horror writer or #Movie maker. Plenty of real-life #Parasitic and #Zombie #Bugs as well as helpful ones for primary & intermediate readers. #NonFiction #NatLibReads.

Great cover. Great book

Unlike other #PictureBooks that deal with the #Loss of a loved one, That Day by Pierre-Emmanuel Lyet, translated by Sarah Ardizzone, is bright and full of colour, simple sentences & #Memories. A great book for quietly sharing or recommending to those in need. #Grief #NatLibReads

Bingo is the only person who can read in #PostApocalyptic America, filling in some of the gaps herself. In Richard Ashley Hamilton's Tectiv Vol. 1 Noirtopia, she styles herself after old books and investigates the disappearance of her friend. #YA #GraphicNovel #NatLibReads
