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!

BOOKBLOG: JEANNE WILLIS, JARVIS
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!

BOOKBLOG: Juno Dawson

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…
