“So the next day Father Christmas started work in one of the municipal greenhouses, and for a while it looked as though he was doing very well. Being a sort of old-fashioned wizard, you see, he was very good at getting things to grow, and he quite enjoyed pottering about pruning and planting.” One more from “Dragons At Crumbling Castle: And Other Tales” by Terry Pratchett, illustrated by Mark Beech.

3rd May - Trilogy It took me a while to choose a trilogy because every series i thought of was more than 3 books! but i've chosen The Bromeliad (also known as the Book of the Nomes), and the individual titles Truckers, Diggers and Wings. This series has always been my recommendation to children who want to read fantasy but aren't yet "grown up enough" for the Disc World novels! It's an excellent introduction to Terry Pratchett's writing (and of course came before all his amazing children's Disc World novels! @randomhousekids #corgibooks #terrypratchett #markbeech #bromeliad #bookofthenomes #truckerd #diggers #wings #queenofmay #queenofmay19 #bookishchallenge###maybookstagram19 #bookstagramchallenge #photochallenge #monthlychallenge #bookchallenge #bookstagram #booklove  #maychallenge #lovereadinglovebooks #sendmybook #loveyourlocalbookshop #booksaremybag #nickelbooks #bookshopheroes @queen_of_books_and_sleep @booksaremybag @meryl.halls @book_tokens (at Sittingbourne) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxAWKpsnPas/?igshid=ampqibuaf70q
