Children's book of the week

We have a large catalogue of children's books ranging from picture books for babies and pre-school children to young adult books for teenagers. Each week we will be highlighting a book from our stock chosen by one of our staff which we would recommend as our 'book of the week'.  

Something Wonderful by Jenny Nimmo and Debbie Boon

Little Hen hasn’t won any prizes like her other hen friends, she thinks she isn’t special enough.
Then one day the silly hens lay their eggs in the wood and forget about them. Little hen looks after then eggs through wind and rain. Back at the farm everyone is worried about her, but then something wonderful happens! She earns a prize and realizes that she is special after all.

A lovely picture book with beautifully drawn illustrations.
