When I sat down to think of my favourite children's book, I could think of no other than the charming and magical story of 'The Bog Baby' by Jeanne Willis. I discovered this story whilst visiting my favourite children's book store as I went to search for new and wonderful stories to share with my class. The bright and colourful illustrations are what attracted me to this book first of all, not to mention the interesting creature plonked in the middle of the front cover! As I turned the pages, the wonderful illustrations, creative vocabulary and delightful story line just inspired me. I love that the story made my class and I want to go and explore the outdoors and see what amazing things we could find, whilst making us think about how to keep our wonderful nature safe. If you want to feel warm, inspired and taken on a magical journey, then I recommend that you read it too.
