What we’re reading: new children’s books (and a video!)

We’ve been sent a lot of new children’s books recently which we’ve been reading over and over, including the new book from Gruffalo author Julia Donaldson.

Instead of writing about them, I thought it would be fun (!) to make a book review video instead about the ones we loved the most, and the surprising one I wasn’t too keen on.

What could possibly go wrong?

Well, not too much – it was half term so both children wanted to be in it but got bored quickly. One of them more bored than the other, as you’ll see from her sudden mysterious lurch off camera towards the camera.

Some of these books are new to us but not necessarily new, if you see what I mean. And we were sent them all from the publishers apart from the Kate Pankhurst which we bought (so thank you!)

The books are:

The Giant Jumperee by Julia Donaldson and Helen Oxenbury / Grumpy Frog by Ed Vere / Fantastically Great Women Who Changed the World by Kate Pankhurst / Loo Queue by Nicholas Allan / My Sister is Bigger than Me by Kate Morgan and Lisa Stubbs and Peppa goes to London
