It’s the 20th year of BookTrust and so, for Bookstart 20, I’ve pledged to share 20 books.
I’ve decided to list Monkeyface’s favourite, and so some of the books I love to read withher are missing from the list… Perhaps I’ll do that another day. It was doubly hard limiting it to just 20 (imagine compiling a list and not being able to include Julia Donaldson!)
It also meant that we reviewed all of the lovely books languishing on our groaning shelves. Here goes:
