Did You Buy Any Books?

Yep! Just a few.

Baggage limit was 20kg on the way over. I left with 13kg of baggage and returned with 22kg. Wasn’t even charged for the extra weight. That was a bonus.

Most of the books are in other languages but the illustrations tell their own story.

Here are the titles:

The amazing work of Nicoletta Ceccoli. Should get some great creative writing from these illos.

The last one is a freebie from the Swedish stand.

I have also ordered five of the most amazing flip books from Japan. We saw them on the Dai Nippon Printing stand but they weren’t selling, so the good old internet has had a hammering as I tried to track them down to buy!

Can’t wait to share the books with my classes.
