Lucinda Gifford
A lively read-aloud about a lost dog’s imagined adventures, using rhyme, humour and expressive illustrations to explore survival, landscape, curiosity and the pull of home.
Francesca Simon
This is a lively choice for a child who enjoys mischief, silly bodily humour and action. Its Viking setting, school episodes and group problem-solving provide variety, while the short, episodic structure can support shared reading or growing independence.
Johanna Bell
This is an inviting, fact-rich beach exploration book: a repeated search pattern encourages participation, while illustrations and tucked-away information reward close observation. The final foldout shifts discovery towards imagination.
Clive Gifford
A lively, visually supported introduction to what AI is, how it can be used and where it appears—from games and art to homes, space and the human body.
Michael Rosen
Expect lively, short-to-long poems designed for reading aloud, joining in and experimenting with rhythm, pace, volume and expression. The collection offers many entry points rather than one sustained plot.
Nick Sharratt
A cheerful school celebration becomes a lively water fight, with children, teachers, costumes, inflatables and a hose. The rhymes, repeated splashy sounds and colourful illustrations make the event feel energetic and playful.
Chris Riddell
Expect a surreal bedtime adventure rather than a conventional quest. The emperor moves through an imaginative landscape of bedroom-inspired objects, searches for a scarf, encounters dragons and eventually returns to bed.
Joseph Coelho
Choose this for shared, lively poetry reading: it combines performance, humour and imaginative wordplay with opportunities to experiment with poetic forms and invent poems together.
