Mistletoe and Murder by Robin Stevens & Nina Tara
Mistletoe and Murder is the fifth book in Robin Stevens’ Murder Most Unladylike Mystery series which we started reading after I heard Robin talking at an SCBWI conference last year. They are fabulous first detective stories and we always find it very hard to stop reading until we get to the end of the story!

In One Cosy Christmas Little Hedgehog invites his friends to spend the perfect Christmas with him. But peculiar things happen at night while the animals are in bed. Can Little Hedgehog and his friends solve the mystery of the strange noises and the missing objects in time to have their perfect Christmas?
Storm by Sam Usher
Sam Usher’s Storm is a great book to inspire children to go outside and have an autumn adventure. We’ve already met the boy and his grandad in Rain, Sun and Snow and we love the way that their relationship and adventures harness the power of imagination and lead them outside to have fun.

MRS MOLE, I’M HOME! by Jarvis
MRS MOLE, I’M HOME! is the story of Morris Mole’s attempt to get home after losing his glasses. I was introduced to the book at a conference last year and just had to buy it, it’s now one of our favourite picture books. The simple repetitive text coupled with humorous illustrations really makes us laugh.
