What I read | May / June 2019

A pictorial look at all the books I read or reviewed over the past couple of months.


[my image, Coltishall, Norfolk, June 2019]

A Million Dots by Sven Volker from Cicada Books - doubling the dots on each page within the illustrations, ingenius and mind-boggling.


Garbage Dog by Eleni Kalorkoti and Robbie Wilkinson (Little Gestalten) - the gorgeous tale of the stray dog.


Gregory the Great Green Frog by Jen Cooper and Kathryn Cooper - he's just too noisy.


The Boy with the Big Blue Glasses by Susanne Gervay and Marjorie Crosby-Fairall - and how his self-confidence develops with the help of some friends


Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species retold and illustrated by Sabina Radeva - a beautiful re-telling of the work of Darwin from a scientist turned illustrator.


Storytime by Georgie Adams and Magda Brol - reminds me of the bedtime story books we had when I was little.


Grandpa's Noises by Gareth St John Thomas and Colin Rowe - yes, he does make several different and interesting noises.


The Lost Words by Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris - from the library - beautiful picture stories representing forgotten words that we must remember to teach our children.


Here we are by Oliver Jeffers - from the library - a guide to living on planet earth for the author's new baby son, and all new human babies - look after it, it's all we've got.
