What my Kids are Reading....

Not sure if this is an occurrence in every home, but if I can't find my kids, the most likely probability is that they're stuck in a book! Two of my kids are avid readers and one needs to be coaxed. Here's what they're reading and enjoying...
St Clare's
Enid Blyton and Pamela Cox
Another Enid Blyton favourite in our home, the St. Clare's 9 book series is a boarding school set story. Twin sisters, Pat and Isabel O'Sullivan are the lead characters in this book. The stories are funny and compelling. A school full of girls is bound to have a lot of adventure and St. Clare's definitely lives up to that expectation. Definitely recommend for kids between 7-12 years
Code Name Bananas
David Walliams
David Walliams is one of the bestselling children's book authors globally. He has a witty and fun style of writing. My daughter lapped this book up in no time (despite it's rather intimidating page quantity!) Set in World War II, this book follows the adventures of a little boy and his friend Gertrude (the Gorilla). It is a hoot, recommended for kids 8-13 years
Agatha Oddly
Lena Jones
The fussiest reader in our home loves amateur sleuth stories and this one did not disappoint. Agatha is a bit of an oddball but her curious mind and adventurous spirit leads her on a path of mystery and intrigue. It is a fun read and doesn't get too serious or frightening. Certainly a page turner. There are 3 books in this series and we are eagerly awaiting more!
