It is filled with news of some excellent books on science, history, health and wellness, books for younger readers, and notice taken of some interesting and entertaining new novels.
Share news of this with friends and family, any one of whom is likely to find just the right book about something of interest to them.
Hi Alan, I always enjoy your book reviews.
ReplyDeleteRecently I came across details of a soon to be published British children's book aimed at 9-12 year olds: "My Sister Lives on the Mantelpiece."

The book is a sign of the times and an example of how much the world has changed in recent decades.
In the story, the ten (yes, 10) year old protaganist's sister has been killed in a London bombing by Islamic terrorists.
Whatever happened to Enid Blyton!
Regards, Lee
Thanks, Lee. That book sounds quite timely.
