A selection of favourites – 300 picture books week 1.

I’m really enjoying focussing on reading different picture books every day, although there are obviously quite a lot of rereads too, in order to hit the 300 Picture book target. I’ve fallen slightly behind in the daily review over at Shingle Street, sigh, but I’m keeping up with instagrams of the covers, which when I remember I also share to tumblr.

So this year so far, we’ve read:

  1. Do not enter the monster zoo.
  2. Dinosaur roar.
  3. Peely Wally.
  4. How to catch a star. Oliver Jeffers.
  5. The elephant tree. Penny Dale
  6. Worm, slug, maggot and leech
  7. Puss in boots
  8. My big shouting day by Rebecca Patterson
  9. Pirate ship ahoy! Charles E Reasoner
  10. Yeti and the bird by Nadia Shireen
  11. Bats at the Beach. Brian Lies
  12. The Moon Flower Fairies by Oakley Graham and Patricia Yuste
  13. The best book in the world. Rilla
  14. Monty’s Magnificent Mane

I’ve seen a couple of other people using the #300PBs tag – if you fancy joining in the challenge please feel free. You can set your target at whatever number suits you – maybe knock off 5 or 6 books for every week we are into the year. And if people want it I’ll set up a linky, but I’m not hustling for it. Let me know what you think. I’d love to follow your lists if you are taking part, so let me know where you’re doing it – goodreads, blog, instagram, wherever.

I’m still hoping to be able to hold some giveaways, so if you’re interested in supporting one, do let me know.

  1. Keen to join in. Didn’t manage to log at goodreads last year. Will try on Tumblr this year. Happy to be involved in promoting giveaway via blog and Pinterest.

    1. Be great to have you. I’ll pop up a linky on my next round up post.

How I Can Help

After 20+ years of home educating my four children (two now adults), I’ve gathered a wealth of experience that I’m passionate about sharing. Beyond blogging and guest writing, I offer several services designed to support families on their home education journey.

Resources to Support Your Home Ed Journey

I’ve put together a collection of resources that I’ve genuinely found useful over the years—things that have actually made a difference in our home education. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to freshen things up, there’s something here to help. These are the tools, guides, and materials I’d recommend to a friend, because they work.
