When I Grow Up

(1 reviews)

Author: Julie Chen Illustrator: Diane Goode

Publisher: Simon & Schuster

One night, while getting ready for bed, a little boy starts to wonder what life will be like when he grows up. He could be a painter, a musician, a mountain climber or politician. He tells his mum all the things he could be when he is older, with his mum telling him that he can dream whatever he wants to be and she will always be there for him.

Beautifully illustrated, this is a warm and reassuring story, dreaming of the future and knowing there are no limits to what children can grow up to be.

Stupid Baby

Author: Stephanie Blake

Sam is NOT impressed with his new baby brother. All he's done is stop Simon playing with his blocks and ruin his fun - but when Simon thinks he hears wolves at the window, he leaps into action to protect him. An excellent picture book which understands the trials and tribulations of a new sibling from a child's point of view.
