Posted on by LovetheSmellofaBook

Today we are delighted to be sharing our review for Caring Conservationists Who Are Changing Our Planet, this colourful book is aimed at children age 5-9.

We really enjoyed reading about the wonderful ways in which people have been inspired to pursue careers based on their interests in the planet and learn a little more about them, what their jobs involve and the impact this has on the world around them.

Full of colour, with a great use of words to make it easily understandable for a selection of ages, so you can sit and read with them whilst discussing the wonderful illustrations and helping them see the impact on the world. Daisy really enjoyed this one as although older, she loved the illustrations and details provided for each person that we met and their speciality.

A wonderful book full of facts and helpful information that makes it a wonderful read for all ages.

Join me today for my review for Summer Nights at The Starfish Cafe by Jessica Redland

Posted on by LovetheSmellofaBook

My Review

I absolutely love a book by the amazing Jessica Redland and what an emotional read this was.

This story pulled at the heart strings from start to finish as Hollie and Jake prepare to get married and we get to spend more time with Kerry and her wonderful children.

Throughout this story there are many highs and lows for the wonderful staff of Starfish Cafe, that make you feel emotionally connected. Once again I’ve laughed and I’ve cried as the story has explored many aspects of life and how we all experience the wonderful highs and the heartbreaking lows.

A story rich in wonderful characters and strong storylines and I loved it from beginning to end. I am so sad this was the last one as I just love the characters and beautiful location for these books.

Book Blurb

Welcome back to The Starfish Café for a glorious summer, but with a few dark clouds on the horizon…

A new beginning…

As her summer wedding to Jake approaches, Hollie is excited for their new beginning as a family. But when some unexpected news threatens the future she and Jake had hoped for, Hollie will need to find the strength to overcome heartache once more.

A fragile heart….

Single mum, Kerry, loves her job at The Starfish Café, but behind the brave smiles and laughter with customers there is a sadness deep within. So when someone from her past re-appears in her life, Kerry can either hide away or face her demons and try to finally move on from her heartbreak.

A summer to remember…

For Hollie and Kerry it promises to be an emotional rollercoaster of a summer, but the community at The Starfish Café will always be there to help them through – after all, with courage nothing is impossible…
