I love reading ‘Each, Peach, Pear, Plum, by the Ahlbergs. It has a great combination of rhyming, fairy story characters and interesting illustrations.

When I last saw my Grandson we were reading "That's not my Dinosaur" and "I need a new Bum"

Peter Rabbit,to my great grandson,I bought him the Rabbit when he was born, and he loves everything that is really soft, so I also bought him a good set of books that have been put away and a book for everyday use and he loves it, as he can relate to his toy and pictures of his toy in a book

'The Tiger Who came To Tea' My granddaughter loves hearing this story again and again. She knows it off by heart now and enjoys pointing out all the different naughty things the tiger did.

I adore reading The Mog stories, Judith Kerr has such a gift for telling wonderful tales and children of all ages simply love listening to them.

I love to read the hungry caterpillar to my youngest grandson over facetime as he giggles away and reacts by pretending to eat all the food on the pages when i show him the book and that makes me laugh too

I enjoy reading Peace at Last by Jill Murphy to my granddaughter because I recognise the situation and remember reading it to my daughters.

I am reading The Water Babies to my grandchildren over FaceTime. It’s an old classic fairy tale & was one of my favourite books when I was a child. Little Tom takes you through amazing adventures with sea creatures & other water babies. He has just met with the fierce Mrs Bedonbyasyoudid.My grandchildren are really loving the story & looking forward to seeing the beautiful illustrations when lock down is over.
