Time Travelling Toby by Graham Jones

Graham Jones, Time Travelling Toby and the Battle of Trafalgar

Lovely story of make-believe time travelling. This book contains lovely illustrations and had everyone intrigued about history and the Battle of Britain. The younger ones didn't really understand the concept of the story but Chester enjoyed it as he has studied the battle of Britain and the German bomber planes!

Cosmic Colin – Stinky Space Race by Tim Collins

Tim Collins, Cosmic Colin: Stinky Space Race

Chester read this book without pausing upon returning home from school, a real fun page turner that uses words like Poo and fart breath – a real enjoyable 'naughty' book for children. Chester usually complains about reading but happily read this book twice, laughing out loud both times!

My Alien and Me by Smriti Prasadam-Halls

Smriti Prasadam-Halls, My Alien and Me

A book with a twist, the human is the Alien and the story of friendship, happiness and sadness surrounding friends that may be different unfolds in a fun way.

Cloe and Cayman enjoyed the tale of new friends and how we can be friends with someone that may be so very different from us in many ways.
