Age 9-11 Michael Morpurgo has a distinctive writing style that turns the ordinary into the extraordinary with a lyrical twist that make him an undeniable great in the world of children's literature. Here, in Dear Olly, Morpurgo brings one family's story to sparkling life with a stunning simplicity that is at once compelling and poetic in its execution. Olly's brother Matt has always wanted to be a clown, and when he sees the plight of Africa's children he makes the decision to fly the family nest to take his skill to a place devoid of laughter. To his family it is a travesty: this bright, intelligent boy with a glowing future ups and leaves to head into the unknown, leaving behind him a trail of worry and feelings of impending doom. Olly is charged with the care of a family of starlings that she and her brother have been watching over in the garden. After Matt's sudden departure the nest is ravaged, leaving just one fledgling alive and stunned. Olly nurses him back to health, and names him Hero. It is Hero's subsequent long and perilous flight to Africa that links the story of Olly, at home with her mother in England, to Matt's new life in Africa. Told in three voices--that of Olly, Hero and Matt--the story spans the continents and delivers love and determination to a poignant, thought-provoking story that stirs the soul.

Nurturing the Love of Reading in Young Minds

Encouraging a love for reading begins early, and our young readers' collection is designed to do just that. We offer a diverse range of books that fuel the imagination and knowledge in children aged 6-12. From timeless classics to contemporary favourites, our selection inspires young minds to explore and learn.

For our youngest readers (ages 6-8), we've gathered an array of picture books brimming with vibrant illustrations and simple text. These stories help little ones build vocabulary and develop a keen interest in the written word. As children grow into more confident readers (ages 8-10), we offer early chapter books that bridge the gap between picture books and longer novels.

Our older readers (ages 10-12) will find shelves full of engaging middle-grade novels that challenge and excite. These books introduce more complex themes and characters, helping children develop critical thinking skills and emotional intelligence.

Throughout our collection, you'll find beloved series that have captivated generations, alongside exciting new voices in children's literature. Whether your child dreams of magical adventures or loves learning about the real world, we have books to match their passions. Non-fiction titles on topics from dinosaurs to space exploration sit comfortably next to fantastical tales of dragons and wizards.

We believe in the power of choice when it comes to fostering a reading habit. That's why we offer a wide variety of genres, styles, and reading levels. From the laugh-out-loud humour of Diary of a Wimpy Kid to the thoughtful narratives of award-winning authors, there's something here to pique every interest.
