The Boy Who Lost His Spark, Maggie O'Farrell ( hardback October 2022)

£14.99

The new children's book from multi-award-winning author of Hamnet, Maggie O'Farrell, paired once more with Daniela Terrazzini's stunning illustrations. When Jem and his family move to the countryside, he doesn't like his new home one bit. It's an old cottage on the side of a hill, where strange things keep happening: shoes are filled up with conkers, the stairs become tangled in a woollen maze.

Jem's sister Verity is certain it is the work of a "nouka", an ancient creature from local folklore that lives deep down inside the hill. Jem, however, is adamant that there is no such thing. But this small mythical creature, so attuned to the hearts and minds of others, does exist.

And, what's more, it is determined, through mischief and mayhem, to help Jem reignite the spark within himself once more.

Those of you who know Maggie O'Farrell's soothing style of writing will know that this is a very special children's story - Linda

I Am A Baby, Bob Shea ( paperback July 2023)

A hilariously deadpan look at new parenthood - from a baby's point of view. I am not sleepy. I am not sleepy because I am a baby.

Mummy is sleepy. Mummy is sleepy because I am a baby. With humour and sympathy, Bob Shea looks at the chaos of life with a baby as amiably narrated by the new arrival.

Repeating the mantra (and blithe explanation) "because I am a baby," the tiny narrator leads us through scenes of exhaustion, grumpiness, squishy nappies, spilled milk, cowering kittens and chubby overfed pups (oopsie!). Playing against the simple, matter-of-fact text are freewheeling illustrations of mess and mayhem, in which the grown-ups' exaggerated body language is sure to send older children into fits of giggles. With its endearing, unabashedly self-pleased star, I Am a Baby will find a place at showers, in nurseries, on parents' shelves and in the hands of appreciative big siblings, as it celebrates the changes a little one brings, at once challenging and full of love.
