Introducing our last #cheneyreads books of the months of the year. Thank you to @mazauthor and @kayvionclewis for two awesome new books. I'm half way through one (loving it) and can't wait to read the other! #lovereading
Wednesday is DEAR day at Cheney when everyone picks up their book to read. This week we're also recognising #antibullyingweek and the positive impact that developing empathy through reading can have. #readforempathy#empathylab#cheneyreads
Thank you so much to Femi Fadugba, author of #TheUpperWorld for speaking to our year 10 students yesterday. We learnt all about how science thinking can turn into creative thinking. An inspirational hour, enjoyed by everyone. #sciencefiction#cheneyreads
@philearle@blackwells@Dauntbooks@alligatorsmouth Hello Phil - if youβre in Oxford again, weβd love to invite you to Cheney. Our students are massive fans of your books and youβd be very very welcome ππ.
@malcolmduffyUK is a new author for me (I found him through the @EmpathyLabUK list. I think his books will be great for our students - I'm off to read Sofa Surfer next. Really great to find a new voice. Hurrah!
I read Between The Lines by @malcolmduffyUK this weekend. A fantastic read that will appeal to lots of our @cheneyreads students. Great that #dyslexia is highlighted in a constructive way and I was really invested in the male characters.
The May #cheneyreads Book of the Month for year 9+ is The Eternal Return of Clara Hart by @LouFinchWrites. I'm telling anyone who'll listen to read this book. Really clever and so satisfying at the end. What a fantastic debut novel!
Easter read #4: Medusa by Jessie Burton. A beautiful retelling of the Greek myth. Really readable, refreshingly short (why are so many books over-long???) and achingly wonderful. Strongly recommended! #cheneyreads@kidsbloomsbury
Easter read #3: The Night Animals by @sarahannjuckes. The book explores the effect that PTSD and mental health issues can have on a whole family. A gentle, subtle and unusual story. Thoughtful too and extremely likeable characters. #cheneyreads
