@Mat_at_Brookes Is this a case of diminished return? Joe loves using this technique to show movement in a static image.

@Mat_at_Brookes @Joetoddstanton Some lovely little drawings above Nyla’s bed of the Rock from TSOBR (think I spy Julian again on the journal?). Also what looks like mummies, dragons & some classics - Pan & Secret Garden offering us a sense of flight (link to Icarus?) & restorative power of nature. #TheComet
Could have listened for another hour and a half with ease. So much left to explore. Perhaps a double act with Mac is required next year?
By the way @burstofbeaden, is Extra Yarn your most ‘juiced up’ cover. So much colour! 🎨
@Xris32 These might suit ⬇️
Written by one of the Australian masters of children’s/YA literature, Gary Crew. Illus. by Steven Woolman (Caleb) and Jeremy Geddes (The Mysteries of Eilean Mor)
The latter is based on a true story and definitely edgier (more KS3).
@rumena_aktar @librarymice @tracyshopkins @absolutelywrite Enjoy! And take plenty of photos. And a something to fan yourself (esp. if you’re going on the underground!)
Very jealous ☺️📚😃
@dc_litchfield Do you find there’s an innate choice in the direction of the light in your illustrations? Or it is based on the scene you’re depicting?
Presume you can’t really shift focus too much during a text as it might disjoint the reader if they switch perspective.
@MarkASmith85 @nicolakillen @FarshoreBooks @WalkerBooksUK @BIGPictureBooks @alligatorsmouth And love this. Great for laughing at both Yams and Grammar.
@MarkASmith85 @nicolakillen @FarshoreBooks @WalkerBooksUK @BIGPictureBooks @alligatorsmouth These are always a pleasure to read and listen to. Great opportunity to go ‘Master of Disguise’ with Hoot Owl. Eyebrows’ poetry will have the children laughing before the reader even gets to the couplet.
Looking forward to using this text tomorrow. Some great ideas from @EmpathyLabUK, do tune in... READ. CONNECT. ACT.

@rumena_aktar @jonnybid @one_to_read I’d always go more leftfield in terms of choice - something they’re not expecting / know.
Possible choices could include this classic Chris Van Allsburg (surrealism, mood/atmosphere), storytelling/music (Dam), War/difference (F&F) or authentically written graphic spreads (WSAS)
