Year 2 Spinebreakers Visit Waterstones!

Yesterday, the year 2 Spinebreakers took their turn in visiting Romford's Waterstones store to choose some new titles for our library.

 

Aaliyah-Shae picked two books suitable for pupils across EYFS and KS1. Her first choice was one of the latest releases from Abie Longstaff, The Fairytale Hairdresser and Aladdin. Aaliyah-Shae's second pick was Peppa Pig's I Love You, Mummy Pig. Both books are extremely glittery - I can see why they appealed to her!

 

Freddie thought this book about Space was so interesting! Throughout the book are flaps to lift and facts to discover. Freddie's second choice was, Dinosaur Roar!

Like Aaliyah-Shae, Katlyn was drawn in by Abie Longstaff's bright and sparkly illustrations, making The Fairytale Hairdresser and the Little Mermaid her first choice. After browsing the shelves, Katlyn chose Izzy Gizmo from author, Pip Jones.

 

Blake was excited about his visit and was originally planning on buying a Dogman book. However, with so many wonderful books available, he soon changed his mind. His picks were Rob Biddulph's Kevin, and There is no Dragon in this Story!

After their task of picking fantastic new books, the Spinebreakers were treated to Hot Chocolates and sweet treats in Costa.

The final group to visit Waterstones will be the year 1 Spinebreakers. Their trip has been arranged for Thursday 28th June.
