Froggy Green by Anna Walker




Joe's favourite colour is froggy green, but what about his friends? What colours do they like most? Sky blue, sunshine yellow, or fireman red?
This adorable board book is aimed at children  up to 5 years old, and helps to develop an understanding of different colours and preferences in young readers. It is a lovely way to introduce teaching colours to your child. 
RRP $14.99 



A Bag And A Bird by Pamela Allen 


I have read many of Pamela Allen's books to my children over the years; she is one of our favourites.
Her latest book is A Bag And A Bird, which tells the story of a young boy named John who lives in Kirribilli, Sydney. 
One day, he organises a trip to the Botanic Gardens with his mum. As they make their journey to the gardens, they pass many of Sydney's famous landmarks and attractions, including Circular Quay, Harbour Bridge, and the Opera House. 
When they arrive at the Botanic Gardens, a plastic bag containing John's lunch drifts away, and a flock of birds scrabble over it, devouring the contents. The plastic bag continues to fly away and ends up caught on a bird's wings, creating a parachute effect, and landing the bird in water. The bag rapidly fills with water, and the gathering crowd anxiously look on as the bird struggles to break free. An elderly passer-by bravely takes on the task of rescuing the bird.
This is a fantastic picture book with an important message about littering, told in Pamela's original writing style.
RRP $24.99



What's Up Top? by Marc Martin 



What's Up Top is a book that will allow your child's imagination to run wild at the possibilities of just what could be up top of the ladder!
Is it a moon, or a yellow balloon? 
Or perhaps it's a hat, or a black-and-white cat?
This simple picture book explores creativity in young readers.
RRP $24.99
