Thanks so much for the chomping great review, Steph!

I love the way you have explained this book. Matt and Mete has worked on this beautiful colourful book for a long time and you have reviewed it so well. congratulations to them both and I'm happy to see the deserved attention it's getting and to recognise our local Writers and Illustrators is absolutely fantastic. Thank you so much Steph.

I love the inclusion of the Indigenous place names, I enjoy learning the traditional place names myself and teaching them to children. I love it because it's a way that we can keep the different languages of the Indigenous peoples alive

Thanks for sharing, Steph! So happy you enjoyed Balluna🎈

I am definitely going to pick up this book. Angus has a very inspiring story and I think this is a great story to share with children to encourage them to reach for their dreams

Nice review.....I was particularly interested in "Going to Big School". You pointed out some very interesting issues. Thank you! 😉

This was one of my favourite picture book from 2024, I loved the story and the illustrations. It definitely reminds me of spending time with my own grandparents when I was a child. Such a beautiful story

Please review the 5 rules of friendship, I wonder, High andPeregrines in the City.

This was my favorite book series in sixth grade. I want to re-read them now.

Those look so pretty! But I think the matte black pocket book editions were my favorite. I regret not buying the physical copies when those first came out... I might get these ones 😂

My mother planned on buying it since recently i have read all the bad guy books

I enjoyed your review. I got here by mistake. I was looking for a review of: The dog who followed the moon. Oops. Cheers.

Thank you very much for this wonderful review. I am creating a lesson plan for this book for my class in Canada! Absolutely loved the story.

Thanks so much for the beautiful words! (perfect pronunciation as well btw!)

Thanks for recommending this book, I really had a great time reading it 😎

Thank you so much Stef for this amazing review of Amigo!! I love how well you understood Amigo and Mila, as well as their sweet friendship! :D As a debut author, this means everything! The little 8 year-old dreaming to be an author in me is so excited right now hehe! 🎉

I just saw your fabulous review of our new book...wow, thank you so much for such a lovely review...I think you should go to Antarctica! So glad you loved it, we could have written and shown volumes of our thoughts and work, but had to pull back! Just wonderful to hear your review, thank you, see you in icy dreams!

I received an email today to register for the Simultaneous Story Time and this is the book they have chosen. I found this review as I was searching for a little more information on the book. I can’t wait to buy the book and to be able to share it with my daycare family

🤺⚔️🗡⚔️🔪 I loved song of the lioness

Hi there. Interested to know if there are multiple illustrations throughout (helpful for younger kids) such as the glimme, or far less/none such as the other series?

🌻🌼🌷🌺🥀🌹🏵🌱🪴🌲🌳🌴💮🌸🌵🌾🌿☘🍀🍁🍂🍃 I have only just found you channel, because I am doing a review on the book 'the garden of broken things' for my university degree. I really like the way you present, and that you talk on Australian books, being Australian and an educator myself, this is a great way for me to learn about new books. My 2-year-old daughters' favourite book is 'kissed by the moon.' not sure if you've done that one already, but thought I would still share ♥

All of these look like fun reads

I need to read all of these, they all look so great!

You have some great suggestions here, I never thought to use Wombat Stew for Halloween, I love that suggestion, such a fun book to read aloud, children love singing the song in the book with me. I have two recommendations for Halloween books, Room on the Broom by Julia Donaldson, its always a hit with children, especially at this time of year. The second book, isn't specifically Halloween, but I love it for this time of year, The Magic Hat by Mem Fox. I adore Mem Fox, I think her books are brilliant, the reason I love The Magic Hat for Halloween is that you can relate the magic hat in the story, that turns the people in town into different animals, to dressing up in costumes for Hallowen, it can lead to a discussion with the children about, what they are going to be for Halloween or creative ideas for costumes.

Thank you so much for another wonderful review! How We Share Cake sounds brilliant! I would love to read it one day 🥮

I am IN LOVE with this triology! Did not disappoint at all!

I'm trying to avoid spoilers, but could you tell me if this series takes place in the same world as Deltora Quest (and the other series)? I want to get theses books, but I want to know if they're connected in anyway.

I'm a simple man: I see Emily Rodda and I'm interested.

How about a disclaimer letting parents know this book has male genitalia.

🐸. I just finished deep in the fen and also loved it.

I love these books so much, I just like hearing them talked about.
