Penny Tangey’s Readings Children’s Book Prize-winning As Fast As I Can is proving to be an enduring (and bestselling) choice for young readers who love sporty stories with heart.
Australian books continue to dominate our kids and YA bestsellers this week; we’ve got a heartfelt and humorous time-slip adventure, feathery fun from the Real Pigeons gang, a gentle and imaginative fantasy from Emily Rodda, hilarious Bad Guys chaos and an evocative story about being on the cusp of teenhood.
An exciting new entry this week is the much-anticipated fourth instalment in Alice Oseman’s popular Heartstopper graphic novel series for teens. It’s been a good week for Oseman, who won the UK’s prestigous YA Book Prize for her novel Loveless.
