There\u2019s sunshine! It\u2019s spring and it feels like it! As this blog will reach most of you in the holidays (and the rest of you just after) I hope that you\u2019re all feeling rested and are ready to face the final term of what has been an interesting year.<\/p>\n
As we head towards the end of the year and there are ever-increasing numbers of books being released, it becomes even harder to choose from them for the blog and new release newsletter (sign up using the form at the bottom of the page!). This month on the blog I\u2019ve chosen books that are sure to hit the spot for those kids in your classroom or library who want something a bit different.<\/p>\n
<\/a>We\u2019ve all heard the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, but in Goldilocks and the Three Crocodiles<\/em><\/a>, we learn about the next adventure of Goldilocks \u2013 and this time her dog, Tiddles, is along for the ride. Unfortunately, it doesn\u2019t seem she\u2019s learnt anything from her previous foray into other people\u2019s homes, and Goldilocks and Tiddles help themselves to a seat, food, and, finally, a bed! However this time \u2013 even more frighteningly than bears \u2013 the house is home to three crocodiles who are not pleased to find uninvited guests. This gorgeously illustrated book is charming and funny in a way that is sure to entertain even the most difficult to please child. A great book to read aloud.<\/p>\n <\/a>I\u2019m sure we\u2019re all familiar with at least one child who is totally and utterly obsessed with dinosaurs! If you have such a child in your classroom, then A Dinosaur a Day<\/em><\/a> will provide them with enough weird and wonderful facts to last them an entire year. This gorgeous book features illustrations of each dinosaur in their habitat, along with a description and key information such as time period, diet and weight. Some dinosaurs are grouped together, and there is an index at the back of the book. Information about the rise and end of the dinosaurs is also included.<\/p>\n <\/a>For those of you who enjoyed meeting Zelli Stormclash in D&D Dungeon Academy: No Humans Allowed<\/em><\/a>, I\u2019m very pleased to let you know that she and her band of friendly(-ish) monsters are back in D&D Dungeon Academy: Tourney of Terror<\/em><\/a>. After defeating a necromancer and an army of the undead, Zelli (who is still pretending to be a minotaur), is faced with defending her school\u2019s honour (what\u2019s left of it) at the Tourney of Terror games. And while pretending to be anything other than human, keeping her friends out of trouble and battling Waterdeep Dragons would be more than enough to cope with, Zelli is also having terrible nightmares. Nightmares in which her entire world is destroyed. Nightmares that might not just be nightmares \u2026<\/p>\n Read of the Month \u2013 One for Sorrow<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
