My hand holding up a book. The background of the cover is black and on it is a stylised orange monkey holding a greenish blueish jewel. The white, hand-lettered title, curving around the monkey and its tail, reads The Golden Monkey Mystery. The author's name, Piu Dasgupta, is written on the monkey's arm in black. The background behind the book is my rainforest wallpaper which, accidentally, fits the theme of the book as it's set partly in a jungle in Bengal.
Been mostly reading adult books but now it's time to return to the kidlit TBR... #KidLitUK First stop will be The Golden Monkey Mystery by @piudg.bsky.social π Cover illo by Helen Crawford-White. I've been looking forward to this one as I loved Secrets of the Snakestone. @nosycrow.bsky.social

A thought for the new term. READING FOR PLEASURE is the most important thing in education: more important than any test scores, or any of the hoops we make our kids jump through. So whatever else you do, please never stop helping kids find books to read & love. It will change their lives! #literacy
