Frank the Monster by Mats Strandberg, illustrated by Sofia Falkenhem, translated by Julia Marshall, is a quirky story full of warmth about a boy called Frank who accidentally turns into a werewolf. An original take on exploring fears and finding where you fit in. @geckopress

Frank the Monster by Mats Strandberg, illustrated by Sofia Falkenhem and translated by Julia Marshall, is a charmingly quirky story about Frank Steen, a 9yo boy who accidentally gets turned into a werewolf. Lots of fun and exactly the right level of spooky for Y2/3 readers.

Stop the Ball by Susanne Strasser is a wonderful interactive board book that builds and builds with animal after animal joining in to chase a runaway ball to a very satisfying end. And so much fun with sound words to have with young children. Highly recommend! @geckopress

Four ducks set out on a lake for an adventure. One is nervous, he’s heard there’s a monster lurking beneath. He tags along and does see something! The deadpan humour of the disbelieving ducks is utterly brilliant! As is the world Leo Timmers has created in the lake. Love it!

No. 26 in my #FavePicturebooks25 is “The Monster in the Lake” by #LeoTimmers
Timid Eric fears the lake’s “monster”…until curiosity leads him to a dazzling underwater world of color, creatures, and courage. A witty, layered tale with stunning above/below spreads. #PicturebookPage
