The Whales on the Bus by Katrina Charman and illustrated by Nick Sharratt. We loved this one. Sing along to the tune of The Wheels in the Bus, with all the animals on different vehicles. A dragon in a wagon roaring all day long anyone? The little ones loved this one, especially A who got so excited waiting for a new page.

A Good Place by Lucy Cousins. From the author of the Maisy books, we absolutely loved sharing this one. A bee, beetle, ladybird and dragonfly are looking for a home, preferably "a good place" for them all. There are plently of not at all good places, until a butterfly comes to help.  Published by Walker Books. Find out more here - https://www.booktrust.org.uk/book/a/a-good-place/
