|author=Anna Kovecses
|title=One Thousand Things
|rating=5
|genre=Children's Non-Fiction
|summary=When you are just short of two years old there’s a whole lifetime of learning ahead. Where to begin? Well, you could do a lot worse than get Mum or Dad to buy a copy of Anna Kovecses’ ''One Thousand Things''. Don’t believe the mouse on the front cover holding a balloon saying ''learn your first words''. To bill this book as a ‘vocabulary builder’ is to woefully underplay its hand. Study hard and this book will see you safely through nursery and in to reception as an assured four year old who can hold their own in the cut and thrust of classroom debate.

|summary=Max the mouse has a secret. He is a superhero! He can't run super fast, or jump really high, or do anything particular 'super' but still, he has a cape and he likes to wear his underpants over his trousers, if his mum isn't looking! He is sure that if he just tries hard enough he will figure out what his super power must be.

|title=The Bus Is for Us
|rating=4.5
|genre=For Sharing
|summary=As a child of the 80s I sometimes yearn for an era free from [[Aliens In Underpants Save The World by Claire Freedman and Ben Cort|Aliens in Underpants]] or rough [[The Gruffalo by Julia Donaldson|Gruffalos]]. An era of Alan and Janet Ahlberg telling [[Each Peach Pear Plum by Janet Ahlberg and Allan Ahlberg|gentle stories]] that had an old fashioned feel, but were still great for the modern kid. Thankfully, I am not the only person out there that craves this as some books are still being produced that describe the simple pleasures such as riding the bus. However, I think that these kids have obviously never tried to catch the Number 9 at rush hour.
