Booktime Book of the Month
Shark and Lobster's Amazing Undersea Adventure
This book's unusual design – pages turning from bottom to top, rather than side to side, helps create the sensation of floating through this turquoise undersea world, and both story and illustrations have a touch of Python-like eccentricity!
Past Books of the Month
This is a very simple, exceptionally lively book, with zinging, energetic colours and two extremely expressive characters.
Something Else by Kathryn Cave and Chris Riddell
Something Else is a lonely creature, excluded from everything because he is different. This is the perfect book for reassuring any child that being different can be a very positive thing.
