This book is about a little girl wanting to choose the best costume for Book Week but her family give her many different suggestions that confuse her. The story takes place in the girl’s house …
Picture Book
Otto’s Ink–redible First Day of School by Rory H. Mather
This book, Otto’s Ink–redible First Day of School is by far most one of the most eye – catching and luring children’s book I’ve read in a while. The illustrations are striking and could be described as ‘bubbly’. The idea and plot of this picture book can relate to young children from all walks of …
The Aussie 12 days of Christmas by Brentos
I really liked the illustrations in the Aussie 12 days of Christmas, the colours were engaging and the pictures were fun. It was so different and pleasing to read an Australian version. It is great for ages 3-5 to learn a favourite Christmas carol, particularly if they are starting to learn their numbers. I would …

Rainbow Street is a fantastic book for young readers. Its simple, yet important, moral of inclusion mixed with with Kelly Canby’s excellent illustrations is what makes this book unique. Kids will read this book and be blown away, while learning more about inclusion. R.W.R. McDonald has definitely done his research about other cultures, as there …

The story of Mrs Claus is an excellent book for youngsters, and I would recommend this book for ages 3 and above as the language and illustrations are easy to understand. This book is about Mrs Claus; she’s strong, smart, and magical, and she wears a bright red dress. She plans all year for a …
Potion Commotion by Rebecca Grant
You’ll enjoy this if you like rhyming, cute, fantasy, and wizard or witch stories. The cover truly drew me in to read it. I started my report because the cover tempted me to pick it up. The whole book feels like a funny, long poem, like a limerick or free verse. What I love most …
