#KidsBooksFriday #KidLitUK #UKKidLit #KidLit #makingadifference #questioning #environmentalconservation

We’re only just started the year and already things feel even more grim than they already were. So for #KidsBooksFriday this week, what books can we put in the hands of kids to encourage them question, challenge and think for themselves? #KidLitUK #UKKidLit #KidLit

Love this series! #KidlitUK #UKKidlit

I loved middle grade mystery Murder For Two by Niyla Farook so am thrilled to have been sent the sequel, Tickets For Murder. Out 15/011, enormous thanks go to Hiromi @piccadilly-press.bsky.social 🥰 #KidlitUK #UKKidlit

Perfect for tween readers, The Overthinkers’ Club: Happy List by Nat Luurtsema, illustrated by Cécile Dormeau, sees heroine Birdie trying to deal with the anxieties growing up brings. Out 12/03 from #UsborneBooks #KidlitUK #UKKidlit worldssmallestlibrary.wordpress.com/2026/01/08/t...

First #PictureBookFriday post in #NationalYearOfReading2026 And I review 3 books sent to me by the lovely folk @andersenpress.bsky.social #TheSpaceBetween #TheReallyBeautifulThing #ACrinkledScreamingThing #UkKidLit vsviewfromthebookshelves.home.blog/2026/01/02/p...

Popped into Bath's lovely @mrbsemporium.bsky.social before Christmas and was delighted to find they had a copy of The Feathered Book. Mr B's Emporium is one of my favourite bookshops and very highly recommended. #UKKidlit #childrensbooks #BookBloggers #bookshops

While at Bath's @mrbsemporium.bsky.social, I got to sign a label, which was then stuck to the ceiling with a pen – a tradition they have for visiting writers. #UKKidlit #childrensbooks #BookBloggers #bookshops

I think a gentle start to a new year of #KidsBooksFriday is in order. Did anyone (or the kids in your lives) get any good books over Christmas or is there anything you’re particularly looking forward to reading in 2026? My suggestions in the photos / captions. #KidLitUK #UKKidLit #KidLit

My contribution to said national year of reading will involve waving this at people if they get funny about kids reading comics/audiobooks/books that are "too young" for them/funny books/books that aren't 500 pages long etc. lokibooks.com/lokifesto/ #GoAllIn #Lokifesto #UkKidlit

Looks very interesting. I just finished Splinter and Ash by @mariekeyn.bsky.social which might fit your brief and I think the sequel will be out next year. Also added these four to my wish list yesterday! #KidLitUK #UKKidLit

What children's books are you excited about for 2026? This one has caught my eye - more kidlit about fascism pls (I may currently be writing a children's book about fascism). www.waterstones.com/book/the-min... #KidLitUK #UKKidlit
