The Night Spinner Launch

February 27, 2017February 26, 2017Leave a comment

I was lucky enough to be invited to the launch part of The Night Spinner, the new and final book in the Dreamsnatcher series, in London and I had a total whale of a time! It was so incredible to finally get to meet Abi and talk to her about her books! I've been a … Continue reading The Night Spinner Launch

BOOKBLOG: JEANNE WILLIS, JARVIS

February 23, 2017February 23, 2017Leave a comment

Poles Apart: Fun and beautifully illustrated! Perfect for the classroom! I spotted this a few weeks ago in Waterstones Newcastle but didn't pick it up at the time so when it came to buying it again I had totally forgotten what it was! In fly the amazing friends of twitter I have! They came to my … Continue reading BOOKBLOG: JEANNE WILLIS, JARVIS

BOOKBLOG: Juno Dawson

February 21, 2017February 21, 20174 Comments

Margot and Me: heartbreaking, soul filled and beautiful. The first I heard of Juno Dawson was when I read the Crisis 'I'll Be Home For Christmas' short story anthology and I absolutely loved her short story about a Geordie boy (see my review here: BOOKBLOG: Tom Becker) and as soon as I heard there was a … Continue reading BOOKBLOG: Juno Dawson

As you all know, I am a huge fan of Twinkl and when I heard they were starting to come out with their own stories I knew I had to give them a look! Man do I wish they had more coming out because this first one is WONDERFUL. I came across the blog post … Continue reading Ronald the Rhino!

Book tasting…

February 3, 2017January 29, 20174 Comments

Book tasting? What? Eating books? How can you be suggesting something so ridiculous?  NO. Not that kind of tasting. A bit like wine tasting... you get a taste of new wine (or books in this case) before you commit to them. You get a whole host of wines (or books) to look at and you … Continue reading Book tasting…

It All Started In September…

February 1, 2017January 21, 20171 Comment

Welcome to the first of many fortnightly guest blogs! The first comes from one of my most recent twitter pals Jack. Without further ado... It started in September. Sitting at a forty-five-degree angle in a hospital bed, having recently undergone the most uncomfortable seven minutes of my life to date. I won’t go into too … Continue reading It All Started In September…

What We’re Reading…

January 30, 2017January 28, 20171 Comment

My first 'What We're Reading' post went down a storm so I figured I would make it a fortnightly thing after all!  As per the last blog post which you'll find here (What We’re Reading!) these books are the books that Year 4 are currently reading. I need to work on showing you how many … Continue reading What We’re Reading…

#ViewFromABook

January 18, 2017January 3, 2017Leave a comment

One of my favourite hashtags on twitter is #ViewFromABook. I love seeing what people are up to as they're reading. I'm not sure where it started or how it came into my life but I am pretty glad it is! My views from a book are generally Starbucks, on a bus or on a metro … Continue reading #ViewFromABook
