This Is Who I Am by Rashmi Sirdeshpande and illustrated by Ruchi Mhasane
A poetic story about a little girl with Indian heritage who discovers all of the amazing things that make her who she is.
Peters’ review: “A lovely look at all the moments and sensations that make up the molecules of a person! It’s full of sounds and smells and is a cosy and warm read. A joyful addition to collections.”
The Last Pebble by Alex Horne
The story of a young boy’s connection with his grandpa – and a mystery that may come between them. Trader and his grandpa have combed the beach of Bognor Regis for as long as he can remember, and every time they find a beautiful or special stone, it’s added to the treasure collection.
Peters’ review: “A beautiful story which feels nostalgic, while remaining resolutely in this century. It will resonate with many children, and is a good safe read while tackling some big topics.”
