The Riversingers is my son's book. Wow, I'm stunned. Very happy for him and only slightly envy

Runs in the family then? My DGSs are only 3 1/2 and 2, but what wonderful books lie ahead for them!

Wow, you've got your hands full Soutra. My youngest one is 2 and she's a ball of energy!

A great book for toddlers is 'The Night Pirates' by Peter Harris and Deborah Allwright. Quick to read, beautiful illustrates, appeals to both sexes, raises questions from the little ones and a great favourite with my 2, 3 and 4 year old GC.
