Won this one on twitter from tamarindbooks. It’s a lovely book, and I’m pleased to find that Smallest is rather fond of it too. Extremely fond of it in fact – last night she had me read it through 4 times straight off.
I think it’s the birds. She loves birds. It’s one of her signs, probably second only to milk. She likes to look out of the window and watch the birds feeding, and she likes to look at the pictures of birds in this book. It’s not your standard children’s book – quite literary I suppose I’d describe it. Very imaginative and with images that I think will grow with reading, worth exploring further and deeper as a child ages. The kind of book I like.

If you want to donate, please feel free, there’s a link in the sidebar or you can use this one. If you’d like to join in with your own version of the challenge, please leave me a comment to let me know so that I can link to you. And also, the booklink above is an affiliate link, but it’s set up with its own tracking id, so anything bought via a 100 book challenge link is separate to those usually on my blog, and I’ll be donating that money through to Oxfam as well.
