10 Beautifully Illustrated Picture Books for Kids
Another fantastic Edinburgh Book Festival came to an end this year, but as sad as we were to see it finish, we came away with a lot of fabulous new books (any excuse to go book shopping!) In my latest video, I’ve shared ten of our favourites and they all have one thing in common – they are all beautifully illustrated! Watch for a sneak peek inside each book and let me know which one is your favourite!
If you enjoyed the video, I’d be really grateful if you would subscribe to my channel. Thanks!
