🙌 Back to School 🙌

Table Manners For Tigers - Katie Crocodile is having a tea party, when in storm three naughty tigers. "They gurgled and they guzzled and chortled till they spat! They drank straight from the milk jug... Then used it as a hat." It's time the tigers visited Miss Molly's School of Manners or they'll never be invited out to tea again... A perfect introduction to table manners with humour, rhyme and a lively cast of animal characters. With online audio to listen to the story.

𝐼'𝑚 (𝐴𝑙𝑚𝑜𝑠𝑡) 𝐴𝑙𝑤𝑎𝑦𝑠 𝐾𝑖𝑛𝑑 - Being kind is super important, but it isn't always easy. Using a goodhearted, enthusiastic little boy's perspective, a lot of sensitivity and a little gentle humour, this story explores the potential pitfalls of trying to be kind, and what being kind really means. To be truly kind, it turns out, you have to try to look at things from other people's points of view. Delicate laser cut holes accumulate as the pages are turned to show how kindness feels and how it can spread from person to person.

We all know and love the joy that gliding down a slide can bring! Summer is a time for fun and much needed routine change; a time where we can hopefully enjoy some connections with our children and family without so many other obligations pulling at attention.

Unfortunately, there is another type of slide that does not instill this same type of joy. This “summer slide” is the loss of academic key skills that are not practiced by children throughout the summer. While not every child will experience this, it is an age-old principle that many of us can understand and appreciate. When we are not practicing skills, we tend to lose or forget them!

Let's take a closer look at one of the new titles for this week!

All About Diversity-
This dynamic and joyous exploration of difference helps young children learn to respond in a kind and equal way to everyone, regardless of shape, size, age, physical and mental ability, gender, ethnicity, beliefs, language, culture, background, and so on. With topics ranging from clothes, music and food to homes, festivals and families, there is plenty for children to talk about as they find out about what makes people different and what makes them unique.

Usborne's commitment to promoting Diversity:

"Our commitment to diversity and inclusion in our books
We commit to ensure that every child can relate to the characters in our books, as well as learning about people who are different from them. There is still a gap to close between where we are now, and where we need to be. We are committed to increasing the number of books we publish that both feature a diverse range of characters and are about diversity. We are also committed to improving the quality and authenticity of that inclusion.
We are particularly aware that we do not have enough Black representation in our books. We are examining both our backlist and our new titles to address this. We are also working on books for our future publishing programme which tackle racism and inequality in a way that will help parents to talk about these issues with their children. "
