'We lose ourselves in books, we find ourselves there too.'


I love to read and share picture books as much as possible. ​Below are some books that both my students and son love to read.
​
Over the next few weeks, I will start to share reviews of each book, which will include a few video clips of them being read with my 'wee yin'. The blog hyperlinks will be included within the descriptions.

I have included any author, illustrator, or publisher that is on Twitter. Connect with them, it will make their day.

Made with Padlet

Picture books are for all ages, not just early/young readers. Mathew Tobin (Mat_at_Brookes on Twitter), senior Lecturer in English and Children's Literature at Oxford Brookes, demonstrates this with this brilliantly curated Padlet.

Some of the texts have been explored by the student teachers at his university. If you come across a box.com hyperlink, that means there are plans and resources to go along with the book.

For those of you that do not teach in England, here is a reference guide:
EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) = 3 - 5
KS1 (Key Stage 1) = 5 - 7
KS2 (Key Stage 2) = 7 - 11
​LKS2 (Lower Key Stage 2) = 7 - 9
UKS2 (Upper Key Stage 2) = 9 - 11
FS = 3-5
Y1 (Year 1) = 5-6
Y2 (Year 2) = 6 -7
Y3 (Year 3) = 7 - 8
Y4 (Year 4) = 8 - 9
Y5 (Year 5) = 9 - 10
Y6 (Yeae6) = 10 - 11
