Here are the kids and young adult books that our shoppers were loving in February. At number one for the second month in a row is the latest novel from the winner of The Readings Young Adult Prize 2023, Ann Liang. Coming in at number two is a magical tale about the relationships between flowers and bees; and at number 3 is an adorable tail about the secret lives of dogs!
