It’s see-through pages allow your young reader to see inside sensational sharks. From the mighty muscles to their terrific teeth, their brilliant blood system to their six senses, this book is a wealth of amazing information. I mean, did you know that a shark’s eyelids don’t close all the way? Or do you know the three most dangerous sharks but that sharks are almost always more afraid of humans than we are of them?
There is a brilliant final page all about how to look after sharks to preserve their species and to care for our oceans and marine life which is both interesting and informative. The illustrations are vibrant, colourful and striking in their style and we love the see-through page feature which makes this book such a unique work of non-fiction for children to enjoy.

Ancient Greek Gods and Goddesses – Tegen Evans (author), Tom Froese (illustrator), Nosy Crow Ltd (publisher)
We are huge fans of this series of historical fact books, produced in collaboration with The British Museum. And this, the latest in the series, does not disappoint.

From Athena, the goddess of war and wisdom, and the beloved goddess of Athens, through Apollo, the god of music, healing and the son (and also a bit vindictive, turning king Midas’s ears into donkey ears!), to Hades, the god of the dead and the underworld, this book is a bold and brilliant introduction to the gods and goddesses.
With fantastic illustrations and text blocks of information set out in an easy to digest format, this is a memorable, well-written guide to the Ancient Greek gods and goddesses.

Unbelievable Football – Superstar Strikers and Animal Antics – Matt Oldfield (author), Alex Patrick (illustrator), Wren & Rook (imprint of Hachette) (publisher)
These books are just the perfect Christmas gift for my football-mad boy/girl twins. They both love football and these amazing, true stories are the best books to educate them on some of their real-life heroes and animal fun and games on the pitch.
Each full-colour book is beautifully illustrated with vibrant drawings on every page. The text is written in larger font with paragraph spacing and words in bold to promote easier reading for those who may struggle with lots of information on the page. And the stories? The stories are wonderful. A mix of humour, humility, inspiring words and much more. For example, did you know that Mbappe donated all his World Cup winnings to charity?! What a legend. Or that a dog in Chile once got onto the pitch during a World Cup game and weed on a player?! Ha ha.
There are half time fantastic further facts in each bold and beautiful book and the true-life tales are so engaging. I struggle to get my little boy to read anything but I know he will be captivated by these books (if he can steal them away from his twin sister!). You’ll kick (pun intended) yourself if you don’t buy these for the little footballing fan in your life.

Our Wartime Street – Fiz Osborne (author), Katie Kear (illustrator), Hodder Children’s Books (imprint of Hachette). (Publisher)
My eldest is in Year 6 so they are learning all about World War II at the moment. This book has been a brilliant addition to her learning.
If you have ever wondered what life was really like for those living in Britain during the war then this is the book for you to delve into. With superbly illustrated pages, depicting intricate details of wartime life for families and children, this book takes you on a walk down a wartime street in Liverpool and allows you to step into the boots of those people on the Home Front. From bombing raids to rationing, being evacuated to having to sleep in an Anderson shelter in the garden, this book depicts the hardships of life for people back at home. Yet, although people had to “make do and mend” and put up with bland food and blackout curfews, this book describes how there was a real sense of people pitching in to help out and people coming together to show that Britain’s spirit could not be broken.
The illustrations are absolutely wonderful, really showing the hardships but also all of the community spirit of the time. This is a wonderful work of non-fiction to educate children about what life was like and it is pitched at exactly the right level, providing just the correct amount of detail about a very sombre period of history.

Great Escapes – David Long (author), Jamie Coe (illustrator), Faber & Faber Ltd (publisher)
If you haven’t read any of the other books in this superb series then I highly recommend that you go. But start with this one.

Choose your own Evolution- Jules Howard (author), Gordy Wright (illustrator), Nosy Crow (publisher)
What an absolutely brilliant book. Dare I say it (I feel November is ok!!), it would make a fantastic stocking filler. You see, this is evolution as you have never envisaged it before… because you are in control. The story of life and your survival is all down to you and the choices that you make.
All my children have just loved this book. We’ve been an extinct T-Rex, an army ant, a wood louse (yuck!!), an extinct terror bird, an American bullfrog and so much more. And all because of the decisions that we made. You see, each animal has a history and their journeys across the ages have determined whether they have lived or died out. Each animal has its own page filled with fascinating facts and at the end of the text, the questions arise as to what you will do to continue their journey … or not?!
Each page is filled with exquisite, colourful illustrations and these a cool flowchart of evolution, as well as a useful glossary and helpful pronunciation guide. This has been a real winner in our house and has been picked up and put down so often. So, come on, will you be the cause of the dinos dying out, or the snails and spiders surviving?!

Dinosaur Desert – Dr Nick Crumpton (author), Ola Pleginska (illustrator), Templar books (publisher)
I have to confess, I had never heard of Zofia Kielan-Jawarowska before I read this book. But, gosh, does she deserve to have her name in headlights because she was one of the most trailblazing women around!!
This beautifully illustrated book follows the life of this courageous palaeontologist who grew up in Nazi-occupied Poland and who studied in secret. That tenaciousness and determination stood her in good stead throughout the hardships of life in post-war Europe and carried her late way to camp life in the Gobi desert. Here, her hard work paid off when she began to expose the bones of a dinosaur that had been lying, waiting to be discovered for over 70 million years. This led to the discovery of one of the greatest collections of fossilised mammals ever to have been uncovered from the age of the dinosaurs.
What a women! And what a book. Bright, bold and beautiful, it is inspiring, fascinating and beautifully written with short text blocks of easy to digest information. For any dinosaur lover, or budding palaeontologist, this is a must read which reminds us that hard work and determination can leave a big mark on history.

Our wonderful world is such a delicate balance of animals, plants and organisms all living together and it is at risk of being destroyed by some of our human behaviours.

From those you may have heard of before like Jane Goodall, to lesser-known amazing humans like Quannah Chasinghorse who passionately defended her Alaskan Arctic home during her teenage years.

Little People, Big Dreams – Yves Saint Laurent – Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara (author), Klas Fahlen (illustrator), Frances Lincoln Children’s Books (imprint of Quarto) (publisher)
If you have a little fashionista at home then this is the perfect book for them. Yves was a shy little boy with a big dream: to be luxury clothing designer. He started small, making clothes for models but out of fashion magazines and was so talented that he came third in a young designers contest. After moving to Paris, and working under the iconic Christian Dior for two years, his career went from strength to strength. But when he was called up to fight in the Algerian army he suffered a mental health crisis after ill treatment by some other soldiers. He lost his job from Dior but when he was feeling better, he and his long-term love, Pierre, set up their new fashion house where he created expensive haute couture as well as more affordable collections so people could wear his clothes. From dreamy dresses to sensational shoulder pads, this dashing designer added so much to the fashion world whilst also believing that true style comes from believing in yourself.
As usual, there is a fantastic further facts and black and white photo section at the back of the book where your little reader can learn more and be inspired by the lifetime achievements of this fascinating designer. The illustrations are, as usual with this series, absolutely stunning: vibrant drawings which are filled with colours, fashion and fabulous outfits.
