I have decided to go back to using this account for library/children’s book tweets. We are updating the library at school and I will have more to say on this matter again! Anyone following me for my wildlife tweets or street photos can follow me at @outdoors_fi

I am so thrilled to receive these beautiful books for our school library. Magic Cat Publishing.

Thank you so much @scholasticuk for sending us this book! I desperately hoped we would win it for the library in the @youthlibraries competition and we did! I read it this afternoon, it’s as good as I suspected it would be @tompalmerauthor

Thank you @OtterBarryBooks for sending this lovely book for the library. I read it to year 3 yesterday and they loved it! It got borrowed straight away afterwards too. @youthlibraries

Thank you @OxfordChildrens for sending this for our school library. Will be reading this over half term.

Thank you @KidsBloomsbury for sending this for our library. @youthlibraries

Another lovely book from @AbramsChronicle thank you. Henry finds a way to join in with the class parade even though he at first finds the idea overwhelming. A lovely insight into the different way some children think.

Thank you for sending this for our school library @AbramsChronicle The stories are so charming and I love the illustrations.

Been meaning to read this for ages and am so glad I have. It’s so beautiful.

Finished this today, absolutely loved it. Would be a great class read for Y4.

When I was a child (pre iPads and 24hr children’s TV) I would spend hours pouring over this book. Looking at it tonight is a wonderful trip down memory lane.

Thank you @KidsBloomsbury

Just finished my first children’s book of the year. I loved it! @Usborne

Looking forward to reading this, thank you so much @KidsBloomsbury @youthlibraries

Well this looks fun. Thank you @HachetteKids and @youthlibraries

Thank you @FlyingEyeBooks @youthlibraries. These books will be excellent additions to our school library.

@thereadingpara @mattcoyney I think this is my favourite read of the year. I also gave it to a friend and to my mam and they both loved it.

📖 Frank & Red by @mattcoyney. A love-hate friendship between a grump my old man & a 6 year old boy. Funny, sad & very heartwarming! Details here: uk.bookshop.org/a/10770/978147…

Here they are - my Top 10 Books of 2024! 📚 They’re in no particular order, but I have chosen a Book of the Year. Ok, well, two, because I couldn’t decide between them! You’ll have to scroll to the end of the thread for those. Let me know if any of your favourites are here! 🙌🏻

Thank you @WeldonOwenUK and @youthlibraries for sending this to our school. I absolutely love this series and this edition is especially lovely. Gorgeous artwork.

Dad fetched the big box of decorations from the attic. They spent a lot of time arranging them on the tree. When they had finished, they switched on the fairy lights and left the curtains open so that all the people passing by could see it. Alfie’s Christmas

I am so happy to receive this for the library, thank you @KidsBloomsbury and @youthlibraries We have a few Pablo and Splash fans here at school who I know will be thrilled.

Thank you @youthlibraries and @publishinguclan for sending this for our library. I shall look forward to reading this over the Christmas holidays.
