There I was, having a browse in my local Waterstones, and a book caught my eye because of it’s good looking cover. I can’t help it, I so do judge a book by it’s cover. Anywayyyyy, The Worm and the Bird is from the author of The Fox and the Star, Coralie Bickford-Smith, the winner of the Waterstones Book of the Year 2015, and it’s a beautifully illustrated picture book. And I really do mean beautifully, the best I have seen in a while. It’s a very sweet story with a touch of dark humour. It’s a book to buy and treasure, for yourself or for the kids. I am going to buy both Coralie’s books this week – I am thinking for Christmas Eve, but I’m sure I won’t be very good at stashing them. Click, click.
