This looks best suited to a child who enjoys drawing and wants to build a personal collection of celebrated artworks.
Sara Stanford
A hands-on, project-led book for making toys from reused household materials. Its clear lists, instructions, cut-outs and optional variations support choosing, adapting and completing makes together.
Julia Donaldson
This is a hands-on cookbook rather than a new Gruffalo story: children can help decorate and assemble imaginative food while adults handle some preparation. It offers 24 character-inspired recipes, including snacks, puddings, breakfasts and simple meals.
Hervé Tullet
Expect an art-led exploration rather than a conventional lesson: each section uses images, page alterations and brief commentary to evoke seeing, hearing, touching, tasting and smelling, then opens towards imagination.
Andy Griffiths
This is a fast-moving, highly visual comic novel about two boys inventing, writing and being repeatedly distracted in their extraordinary treehouse. Its humour comes from absurd machines, fantastical creatures, cartoon drawings and playful attention to making a book.
