Max and Tom have become voracious little readers - a habit I actively encourage. We often end up in bookshops topping up our supply of chapter books and other treats.
Our bub-to-be, when she is old enough, will be very unimpressed with the selection on offer in our house. Other than some lovely classics from my childhood or well-read godparents, there is shelf after shelf of books on road construction, marine life, emergency rescue vehicles, spy kids, trains, space, natural disasters, dinosaurs and the like.
So when I found myself browsing in a bookstore with the boys the other week I couldn't resist this beautiful book.
The illustrations are just sublime, and the colour palette so appealing.
Even the boys appreciate it (it is about a large vehicle after all.)
The illustrations are by Anna Walker.
A school bus in the perfect red.
Even the back cover is irresistible.
