'Summer was our best season: it was sleeping on the back screened porch in cots, or trying to sleep in the tree house; summer was everything good to eat; it was a thousand colors in a parched landscape; but most of all, summer was Dill.' Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird

We are delighted that @frankcottrell_b is the new #childrenslaureate. His passion and determination to address inequality builds on the brilliant work of @JosephACoelho. Our campaign to ensure that ALL children have access to a school library staffed by a librarian continues…!

The Dormouse lay happy, his eyes were so tight He could see no chrysanthemums, yellow or white. And all that he felt at the back of his head Were delphiniums (blue) and geraniums (red). ~A.A.Milne #tuesdaymood #flowers
