Our customers flocked to Inga Simpson’s beautiful love song to Australian trees, The Book of Australian Trees, this week, sending this new illustrated title straight to number one position on our kids and YA bestsellers. Yumi Stynes and Dr. Melissa Kang’s fantastic new guide to consent and respectful relationships for kids, Welcome to Consent also sold very strongly for a second week running - our staff reviewer said this approachable book ‘has the power to change the conversation around consent, make interactions safer and give young people clear guidance on what positive relationships look like.’
Following these top titles, we have a delightful parade of bestselling stories for all ages: Nova Weetman and Emily Gale’s lively Australian time-slip adventure, a wonderful graphic novel about friendship and the goodest of dogs, the winner of this year’s Readings Children’s Book Prize, a sparkling seaside fantasy adventure by legendary Emily Rodda, the seventh Real Pigeons book and a sensitive and authentic school-leaving Australian story for teens.
