Happy #bookbirthday #gruffalogranny ! I love it, like meeting old friends, this one’s going to be just as popular as the 1st two in my opinion 😊🥰 I sent a copy to my granddaughter and apparently it’s a thumbs up from her too!

I had a great time #carnegies2026 yesterday, met up with old friends & revelled in the librarian & book love that was an overriding theme running through the entire occasion. Loved the involvement of young shadowers. Congratulations to everyone included #goallin

I do love a fun factual book and when you take the cuteness factor up to ten ……it’s a winner straight away! Love the branching facts , like an adventure game book, really interactive. I know a 5 year old who is going to love this book, especially the giraffe facts! #funfacts

Bev Humphrey @libwithattitude65.bsky.social · 19/06/2026

Gambit would like everyone to know that this book was not written about him, delightful story though it certainly is, he isn’t large …….just fluffy 😹He does concede that the small grand human who visits regularly is going to love this book 😻#picturebook @dkbooks.bsky.social

Bev Humphrey @libwithattitude65.bsky.social · 19/06/2026

Shapes of Nature @dkbooks.bsky.social is quite simply stunning, with so much to see & learn about on every glossy, full colour page. It’s a large format hardback & would make the most fabulous present for any nature loving child (or adult 😊) ,a book to be treasured #factualbooks #naturebook

Bev Humphrey @libwithattitude65.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

Seldom have I enjoyed a book as much as I loved The Astral Library. It is such an amazing story with nods to classic literature sprinkled throughout , and it reads as a protest , a love song and is just the most absorbing, life affirming read for any bibliophile, but especially for librarians 😊

New report from @literacy-trust.bsky.social reveals that children’s enjoyment of reading & daily reading habits have risen for the first time in 5 years. However the gender gap for younger children & the disadvantage gap for older children is widening. #BookSky booksforkeeps.co.uk/new-national...

So much exciting new stuff launched at #canvacreate , even Gambit was impressed! Now to find time to play, it’s such a pain when work gets in the way of learning, huh?! I’m ridiculously chuffed at being able to print direct rather than downloading 1st 😂😊 #Canva

This weekend's reading: Loved no.1 in the Cafe Chaos series & The Way the Cookie Crumbles is just as funny & warm as the 1st . Heartbreak Era is a warm & fuzzy romance , with no spice , so would be great for year 7 & up, I really enjoyed it @nosycrow.bsky.social @scholasticuk.bsky.social

010

Bev Humphrey @libwithattitude65.bsky.social · 12/03/2026

Today’s #bookpost came with a tin of beans (much appreciated!) which is unusual lol. I greatly enjoyed the 1st book in this series & I’m looking forward to reading this one whilst enjoying my snack 😂🤣🤣 @nosycrow.bsky.social

Bev Humphrey @libwithattitude65.bsky.social · 12/03/2026

Happy #bookbirthday to this excellent factual book , although aimed at young people I can think of many adults who would benefit from reading it! Easy to dip in & out of with interactive questions & interesting facts throughout #Usborne

This bright, fun #picturebook is a great way to introduce children to #lunarnewyear traditions around the world & has a warm family message too. I really liked the recipe for peanut cookies & the dragon craft activity in the back of the book as well @walkerbooksuk.bsky.social
