If they’ll read about Minecraft but turn down everything else… start with Minecraft.

It doesn’t need to be a secret route towards the book we think they should read next. The familiar characters, vocabulary and world may be exactly what makes reading feel manageable — and worth the effort.

Sometimes the right book doesn’t pull a child away from their favourite thing.
It meets them there.

September brings... Gruffalo Granny!

The deep dark wood has a new visitor… and she’s expecting dinner. 👀

Gruffalo Granny brings us back to the Gruffalo family for the first new story in more than 20 years. But while everyone is busy planning Granny’s welcome meal, one little brown mouse has a rather important question:

How does he make sure he isn’t it?

Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler are back—with claws, cooking and a Granny we’ve been waiting a very long time to meet.

Available now on Wonder Wing 😁

History comes alive when children can step into the story.

This beautifully illustrated book introduces young readers to William Wallace, Scotland's fight for independence, and the real people behind the legends.

Perfect for curious children who love castles, battles, and discovering the stories that shaped our world.

There are two types of adults: those who pretend they’re too mature for this book… and those crying laughing halfway through it. 😂

Completely ridiculous. Entirely chaotic. And somehow still one of the most requested read-alouds by children.

Proof that sometimes the books children love most are simply the ones brave enough to be completely silly.

Be honest... how many books are currently on your child's floor? 📚😂

A) Neatly stacked (we're impressed!)

B) Scattered everywhere

C) I'd rather not talk about it... 🤣

Tell us your answer below. We promise not to judge. 😉

There are books children enjoy.

And then there are books that completely change children's literature forever.

For generations, The Cat in the Hat has been helping young readers discover that reading can be playful, mischievous, rhythmic and ridiculously fun.

Sixty-five years later, that striped hat is still causing chaos. 🎩

Some books feel like adventures.

Others feel like secrets.

The sort of story where you're quietly turning pages because you need to know what's hiding just beyond the next chapter.

The Midnight Panther has that rare kind of atmosphere that pulls readers in and refuses to let go.

Perfect for children who love mysteries, nature, and stories that linger long after the final page. ✨🐾

Children have a remarkable talent for making perfectly reasonable excuses.

"The dog ate my homework" feels positively boring compared to this one. 😂

This is exactly the sort of fast-paced, funny adventure that wins over readers who love action, chaos, inventions, and the occasional dinosaur-sized problem.

Because sometimes ordinary days are overrated.

There’s something wonderfully quiet about this book.

No flashing buttons. No over-the-top gimmicks. Just beautiful storytelling about the changing seasons, survival, nature, and the rhythm of life in the wild.

The sort of book that makes children suddenly notice fox tracks, falling leaves, and woodland sounds on the next walk outside.
