Another great #KidsBookFriday idea. For nearly all of my wider family's children, this was their dystopian book era! Popular choices: The Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins Mortal Engines series by @philipreeve.bsky.social The Giver by Lois Lowry The Enemy series by Charlie Higson

Cover of Mortal Engines by Philip Reeve showing a steampunk style hot air balloon with two figures in it above a scuttling traction city set against a red and orange sky.

Cover of The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins with white text against a black background and a gold colour brooch featuring a stylised bird above a thin arrow.

Cover of The Enemy by Charlie Higson showing a figure in the distance walking along a dashed white line in the middle of the road with London landmarks in the distance and what appear to be smudges of blood all around the cover.

Finally read 'Thunder City' by @philipreeve.bsky.social and it may just be my favourite Mortal Engines novel since the very first. A genuinely thrilling adventure that also hit me right in the feels at one point. So good. Can't wait for sequel 'Bridge of Storms', on preorder. 😎 💙📚 #MortalEngines

Cover of young adult sci-fi novel 'Thunder City' by Philip Reeve. Done in a sunset (or possibly dawn) palette, the illustration shows a Traction City (mobile predatory city on caterpillar tracks), airship and floating city, with two characters in the foreground, representing main character Tamzin Pook and a Revenant (dead human brought to life in semi-mechanical form) - about whom to say more would be a spoiler.

Esme Laverne in Jack Mackay‘s Gloam is genuinely terrifying! I loved the two assassins in Thunder City by @philipreeve.bsky.social Perhaps the scariest are villains like Johnny in Jenny Pearson’s Shrapnel Boys or Cosmo in Sera Milano’s Vile Stars because we might meet people like them in real life

Two books to look out for in 2026 👀 Bridge of Storms is set in the world of Mortal Engines, and is the first of two sequels to Thunder City. Of Mice and Mummies is the eighth book in the Adventuremice series, co-authored and illustrated by @sarahmcintyre.bsky.social Happy New Year!

Bridge of Storms cover art by Ian McQue. It shows a motorised city edging across a large bridge. In a storm.

Nothing makes a fabulous stocking stuffer like a highly-illustrated Adventuremice book... or a big ribbon around the whole series! My co-author & I recently launched book 7; it's backed up with lots of fun, free activities at Adventuremice.com! @philipreeve.bsky.social @dfbstoryhouse.bsky.social

Covers of seven Adventuremice books: Otter Chaos, Mermouse Mystery, Mice on the Ice, Mice on the Moon, The Ghostly Galleon, Mice Camera Action!, and the new book, Mousehole to the Centre of the Earth.

Don’t worry, you don’t need to read the books in order, you can start with the new one or anywhere else!

If you’re wondering what age the books are aimed at, they’re popular with kids ages 5-8, but younger children enjoy the books being read to them, and older children (such as 12-year-olds) enjoy the artwork and the sense of a cosy comfort read. Often I find adults buying the books for themselves, and even pieces of the original book ink & watercolour artwork, which I sell on the Adventuremice website.
