The books we call "children's books" are really books written for an audience that INCLUDES children, but excludes absolutely no-one. They are really books for everyone - and you can never, ever be too old to read & love them! #InternationalChildrensBookDay

I had no money growing up. My dad was a labourer and my mum did everything to make ends meet. Men worked hard. Women worked miracles. But education was free. As was the local library. I knew books were my passport to a better life. Happy #WorldBookDay

I made this list as I was just starting out in my role as T-L. I think it still holds true today. Thanks, @gcouros for the inspiration!

So excited to gift this to my Mum tomorrow ... a box full of books! One for every month of the year. Each individually wrapped with a synopsis, or teaser, of the storyline on the outside.
