Inspires by tonight's planets sightings, where Venus, Saturn and Neptune made a bright light in the sky during sunset, and later, Jupiter and Mars were close together, I thought I should draw your attention to the Space and the Universe category, so you can learn about the planets and stars!

I might even feed you mince pies and mulled wine or hot chocolate!
I'm really excited for the big day, aren't you?

Another Reference book - The Book of Knowledge is aimed at slightly older readers than the Book of How? from earlier in the month, and it's even more jam-packed with facts, lists, pictures, topics and collections!
It'll take you all year to get through the massive mountain of information!

The 20th day of Advent! For those of you who go to

The 20th day of Advent!
For those of you who go to school, this is your last day of term!
Now you can throw that uniform in the wash and not worry about it for a couple of weeks!
And it also means you've got plenty of time to sit back, relax, read, choose new books for next year....
I'm afraid that, unless it's in my Book Nook and you live locally, it's unlikely that you'll be able to buy something from me to receive before Christmas now (last postage date was today!)
To that end, I thought I'd recommend something that is in stock, *and* I've got two signed copies.
The City beyond the Stars is the sequel to The Kingdom over the Sea by Zohra Nabi.
From the blurb: "Yara and her friends set off on an adventure to find her mother’s home, and to seek out a secret magic that her mother was working on – magic so powerful that it could defeat the alchemists once and for all. But the wicked alchemist Omair Firaaz is on her trail and will stop at nothing to gain the power himself… Can Yara and her friends find the magic that could be the answer to everything … before it destroys them all?"

19th of Advent.... Older/confident readers fiction

19th of Advent....
Older/confident readers fiction time again!
We all love Alexander Armstrong in this house, so his children's novel The Golden Linnet is a hit here -
Here's the blurb:
"12-year-old Sam’s world is blown apart when he discovers that his family was once at the heart of a secret society – The Order of the Evening – that had long protected the world.
Now a powerful enemy is closing in, destroying all in its path to find the Order’s hidden palace of Bellasis and the source of its powerful magic. Only Sam can stop them. But first, he must bring the Order together again.
The clock is ticking. Dark forces are massing. Sam must undertake perilous journeys, determine friend and foe, and discover his true powers."

And it's the first of a series!

Good evening!
Thank you for joining us on the 18th day of Advent!
Today's book is a picture book by the talented author Onjali Q Rauf, in a similar vein to his older fiction book The Boy At the Back of the Class, comes The Girl at the Front of the Class.
It's a story about a new girl in class who doesn't talk to anyone and seems sad - we learn she's sad becuase she's had to leave her old home and start again somewhere new. And it's an uplifting story of her new classmates welcoming her into their group and friendships forming.

One week to go!
17th day of Advent
Today, I'm recommending this nature-istic book by Emily Gravett (the inimitable) - Bothered By Bugs!
You saw me recommend this earlier in the year, so it shouldn't surprise you that I've chosen it for the Advent list!
As Pete the Badger learns to his cost, every tiny creature has a role and a place - getting rid of all of the teeny-tiny insects means the balance of the forest is ruined - no one to tidy up, no one to keep it clean, no one to pollinate the fruit....
It's a fun story with a serious message. Perfect for young eco-warriors and anyone who loves our world.

It's the 16th day of Advent, and it's the perfect day to snuggle down to choose some last minute presents from your favourite bookseller, or to have a browse of the books you want to buy to be cosy in January.
What do you think of this gorgeous Atlas of Cats?
In this book, you'll find large continent maps show the origin of 100 fascinating breeds including the fluff-tastic ragamuffin and hairless sphynx, plus get the lowdown on each cat's unique skills and find fact-packed spreads about cats in ancient Egypt, courageous cats, cute kittens, and more...

On the 15th Day of Advent, my bookshop recommended to me....
This one is perfect for a new year present - confident and older readers have a look!
The fabulous David Olusoga takes us through a whole year of Black History - not just in Britain but around the world.
The blurb tells us "Packed with quotes, poems, illustrations and pictures, Black History for Every Day of the Year gives you new insights about well known figures and inspirational unsung heroes. With stories of hope, connection and creativity, alongside tales of racism, resistance and celebration - from the nineteenth century anti-slavery movement, to World Wars I and II, to the Harlem Renaissance, Stormzy, Simone Biles and beyond.

It's the 14th of Advent!
We're getting really close now!

Today's recommendation is a picture book - we're huge fans of Nibbles the Very Hungry Book Monster, because eating books is so lovely and delicious and definitely the best way to digest all those lovely books!
Oh, wait, no, that doesn't sound right...
But Nibbles does... doesn't he?

13th day of Advent...
The First Big Book of How? is our recommendation for today.
How do scientists see into space? How do polar bears keep warm? How do keys open locks? How do fireworks explode? Featuring more than 150 compelling questions about space, Earth, machines, buildings, animals and the human body, this magnificent book provides answers for every inquisitive child.
It's got photos and illustrations to accompany the fascinating facts that most children ask, and more than those, too!

The 12th day of Advent's recommendation is the won

The 12th day of Advent's recommendation is the wonderful Sprouts by Sibéal Pounder.
This is the Blurb:
In the year 4024, Christmas is everywhere. Santa Claus rules the world and the Big Day happens EVERY DAY! There are holographic elves to grant your wishes, travel is by flying sleigh, and all food is served as candy canes, in any flavour you can imagine! Not everyone gets to celebrate 24/7 though. Gryla Garland is a witch banished to the Mince Pie Isles, where Christmas comes but once a year.

All she’s ever wished for is to join the festive world. But when Santa’s daughter, Merrilee Claus, comes crashing into her life, Gryla realises Christmas every day might not be such a good thing after all. With the real magic of Christmas long forgotten, it’s up to Gryla, Merrilee and a lot of sprouts, to bring the magic back

11th day of Advent - time for a boardbook. Giraffe
