From Sunday Chutney to Huckleberry Finn

The Story Tree has had lots of new children's books arrive the the past few days.  One of my favourites, Sunday Chutney, written from the perspective of a young girl whose family travels often and has to make new friends everytime they do so, was a joy to read once again.  


Another of Aaron Blabey's books, Stanley Paste takes a look at a young boy who believes he is too short and the friend he makes who believes she is too tall, and who both come to realise that it doesn't really matter.

 The Adventures Huckleberry Finn is a much beloved classic that has also arrived.  

At the moment we've also got some amazing pop-up books, even one with music - because pop-up pictures alone are just not entertaining enough these days!
