|title= Lulu and the Chocolate Wedding
|rating= 5
|genre= Emerging Readers
|summary= Unusual, quirky children's books can be hit or miss, but this one is a definite hit. Told in cartoon strip form, with illustrations reminiscent of the brilliant ''Raymond Briggs'', it mixes the real world with dreamy fantasies that have a touch of [[Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll and Sir John Tenniel]] to them.

|summary=Hilda, a rather delightful small, blue-haired girl, is never far from an adventure. She is confident and excitable, brave and creative, and her stories are slightly mad, and very, very readable!

|title=Finding Winnie: The Story of the Real Bear Who Inspired Winnie-the-Pooh
|rating=5
|genre=For Sharing
|summary=A little boy called Cole wanted a story. He particularly wanted a true story and it had to be about a bear. It was getting late, but Mummy said that she would do her best. Her story began about a hundred years before Cole was born and it was about a man called Harry Colebourn who lived in Winnipeg. He was a vet and was on his way to Europe to look after the horses of the soldiers fighting in the Great War when he met a trapper with a baby bear: his head might have said that there was nothing he could do, but his heart told him to get hold of the bear and he gave the trapper $20. Winnipeg, as he named the bear, went on the train with Captain Coulbourn and his troop, across the ocean and finally arrived in England.
