From ecotastic reads to magical worlds to practical & engaging interactive art projects across a range of mediums inspired by classic & contemporary artists from around the world to fantastic animal facts #NationalYearofReading2026 #WorldBookDay #KidsBooksFriday #KidLitUK

This year I just want to keep shouting about the amazing texts that tempt and reminding educators that it's ok to step away from books that they read as a child. Also I won't assume that everyone knows the books I would consider favourites. #kidsbooksfriday A small selection....

Well we've got the fabulous @ldlapinski.bsky.social coming to #Orkney to celebrate #WorldBookDay with us 🎉🤩 so Artezans is going to feature! #KidsBooksFriday

I don't usually do this but I'm going to say on this occasion...my books! Because I'll be doing events in schools for world book day, talking about norse myths, reading for pleasure, comics and mischief! Mostly this one featuring Freyja, goddess of Love and War #KidsBooksFriday #NorseMyths

With this year being the National Year of Reading, next week’s #WorldBookDay feels particularly celebratory. For #KidsBooksFriday this week what great kids books, new and old, will you be reading, talking about and sharing with kids this coming week? #KidLitUK #KidsBooksFriday #KidLit #EduSky

What are you up to this evening, fancy coming out for a drink? We’ll be in The Walrus in Brighton talking to @cartooncounty.bsky.social about making This Slavery graphic novel

I’ve been hoping Maisie Chan would do an Author’s Live for ages. So excited for this! Open to all schools in the UK. Get your classes registered folks. It’s going to be another brilliant one. #KidLitUK #UKKidLit #EduSky

We’ve often recommended Quiet Storm to our readers, loving its pace, insight and fervour. Our anticipation for Always Angel was high, and met. What a truthfully realised character, a desperate situation, a wonderful read. #KimberlyWhittam #Usborne #recommended #empathy #childrensbooks

My Saturday made by an email from a friend with a 4 year old whose current favourite book is “How to Find a Rainbow” and who has learned how to make his own rainbows from the book. Are you even parenting if you haven‘t read it to your child? alomshaha.com/portfolio/ho...

This new book encouraging critical thinking is excellent for all ages - including adults - and blends fun with serious. False: Bats are Blind Cleopatra was Egyptian Ninjas Wore All Black Classical Statues Were White Hair & Nails Keep Growing After You Die Bulls Hate Red #KidsBooksFriday #KidLit

It may sound odd, but to switch myself off after busy days, I make stuff. Often simple things, but sometimes I lose myself in more complex models, a kind of meditation. This little ship has been exactly that. 🙂 Made entirely from recycled cardboard tubes. www.darrellwakelam.com #edusky #skyart #UKEd

We put our #WBD vouchers home today. Walking home this afternoon I bumped into one of my class just heading out on their bike. What was in their pocket? @jamiesmart.bsky.social Bunny Vs Monkey Total Chaos. They'd gone straight to the bookshop from school & taking it to a friend's to share 🙌🏻🎉 #EduSky

More fantastic whole school picture book picks: The Artist by Ed Vere, Granny Came Here on the Empire Windrush by Patrice Lawrence and Camilla Sucre, To The Other Side by Erika Meza, The Spots and the Dots by Helen Baugh and Marion Deuchars. #KidsBooksFriday #kidlituk

Ghost Town by Eric Colossal is a lot of fun. A high-energy graphic novel, perfect for Y5/6. It's basically a cross between Scooby-Doo (when it was good) and Stranger Things (when it was good). Looking forward to adding it to the classrooom shelves next week.

I’m going for Voices in the Park by Anthony Browne. It’s great for discussing how people can have different experiences at the same time in the same location #KidsBooksFriday

#KidsBooksFriday After the Fall - one that we can all learn from, no matter what age The Golden Rule - gentle, empathetic look at world faiths, teaching us respect and kindness Isn’t Everything Great - relentlessly positive; a joy to share Tadpole’s Promise - hilarious and conversation starter

Thank you. padlet.com/Jon_Biddle/r...
