    Sabotage On The Solar Express by M G Leonard and Sam Sedgman

    This review was written by Zach, aged 10, he wrote: This book is part of an adventure series inspired by real train journeys. It sees the return of the Reza family from ‘Kidnap On The California Comet’. I like it because the mystery carries on for most of the book and is revealed right at…

    Slow Horses by Mick Herron

    I LOVED this book! The characters are well-rounded and in-depth, with back stories delivered naturally rather than forced, the settings are vivid if squalid, and the plot is makes it hard to put down.

  • The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle

    The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle

    I was on Google and typed in ‘best stories for 2 year olds’ and The Hungry Caterpillar popped up so I ordered it from LibrariesWest. At this point I hasn’t read the book in 30 years, but felt so familiar with the illustration on the front cover, the painterly collage of a simple chubby caterpillar,…
