BOOKS OF THE WEEK
Our librarians and children's book specialists' highest rated titles of the
week.
The front cover is eye-catching and the illustrations striking but as well as
being lovely to look at, the contents do deliver. The tales are short, engaging
and it's a great way of introducing classical music to young readers. There are
links for individual famous music pieces that could be played in the background
as you read each story. Good for reluctant readers, as a different approach and
would be great as a dramatic storytime session. Could also be used to inspire
creativity/craft session. A useful book to add to collections

START YOUR STORY WITH PETERS
"Peters took the time to understand our brief and really get to know the needs
of our pupils. They then put together a wonderfully diverse and inclusive range
of books so our pupils can see themselves reflected, read the classics, read a
book in their home language. We now have a library that is just right for our
pupils and will be a place where reading is loved!"
Rebecca Eaton - Headteacher, Conway Primary School, Birmingham
"I would order with Peters every time. We have made several large orders in the
last few years, completely replacing all our library books and they have made it
so easy and exciting with a wonderful range of books. They are helpful, timely
and brilliantly organised. I cannot recommend them highly enough!"
Caroline Urrutia - Literacy Coordinator, First Tower School, Jersey
"We have had a big drive on Reading for Pleasure and with the brilliant support
of Peters we have been very successful in developing a Reading for Pleasure
culture in school. So many more children are able to talk about favourite
authors and make suggestions to each other about what to read next."
