  12. Jonathan Litton and Thomas Flintham - Marvellous Maths because I think that any book that makes subjects such as Maths and English more engaging to young children is always a great idea.

    I love with my 2 grandsons, The Pirates Next Door, by Jonny Duddle. They love pirate stories and adventures. Also we live on the Wirral Peninsula where they have built 2 pirate ships made out of driftwood and pallets for the children to play on, and can act out being a pirate
