My young son and I tend to have differing opinions about which books are good enough to read again and again . . . and again. The other day I discovered Special Kev by Chris McKimmie. It works on several levels and is brilliant for both kids of various ages (great colours, unusual themes, Australian cultural references) and adults. I need more! Thanks for all your ideas and suggestions. Nicci Hi Katie and Lou

And how ridiculous I had to find out about it from The Horn Book! It's a fantastic and much-needed resource and I will be passing it on to my various networks. I just wanted to comment on your post about Shirley Hughes. I recently picked up a (sadly remaindered) copy of her coffee-table style autobiography, "A Drawing Life". If you can't find a copy in a local bookshop, it's listed on amazon.co.uk Highly recommended. Cheers, Judith Ridge Western Sydney Young People's Literature Officer How lovely to find this blog!
