Wallace & Gromit: Cracking Contraptions Manual by Haynes – review and giveaway #100books

8th February 2011 by Jax Blunt

We've been sent some great stuff to review as part of the 100 books challenge, but this has been one of Small's favourites. So I'm particularly glad to have been sent two copies - meaning I can give one away without having to pry it out of Small's grasping fingers! We like Haynes stuff here. … [Read more...] about Wallace & Gromit: Cracking Contraptions Manual by Haynes – review and giveaway #100books

And still they came #100books

31st January 2011 by Jax Blunt Leave a Comment

Few more reviews that the kids finished off earlier. Big reviewed There's A Pharaoh In Our Bath! - her third Jeremy Strong of the week I think. And I took a look at the fourth Astral Legacies book, The Elephants' Call, as sent to us by Top That Publishing. Small read and reviewed The Great … [Read more...] about And still they came #100books

Connor's Eco den #100Books

31st January 2011 by Jax Blunt 2 Comments

On our library raid yesterday I spotted a book with a geodesic dome on the cover. I couldn't resist, and added to the pile of 71 books we were bringing home with us. It's an interesting take. Turns out that Barrington Stoke, the publishers, are working very hard to design books for reluctant … [Read more...] about Connor's Eco den #100Books

Divide and Rule #100Books

31st January 2011 by Jax Blunt Leave a Comment

I borrowed Divide and Rule from a friend's last week (accidentally leaving my half finished review copy of O: A Presidential Novel there in exchange, so that won't get finished and reviewed til next week now, *oops*). I like Jan Mark - as is obvious by the fact that I've already reviewed a couple by … [Read more...] about Divide and Rule #100Books

Off the shelf #100books

31st January 2011 by Jax Blunt Leave a Comment

A few more round up reviews of books that we've had around for ages and I've read again to Smallest. The Whales' Song is one of the batch of mini treasures that we picked up, but it's also a book we've had for a while. It doesn't seem like a first picture book somehow - it's quite a deep story, … [Read more...] about Off the shelf #100books
