The children say they enjoy choosing which books to read and show lots of diverse tastes.
Isha picked out ‘The Boy in the Dress’ and says: “It’s funny and sad. It’s like a comic and you have lots of laughs. This was my first ever thick book I read.”
Annesha enjoys reading a book about artist Frida Kahlo, from the children’s biography series ‘Little People, Big Dreams.’ She says it’s because she ‘likes art and the pictures.’
Zina is challenging herself with a longer mystery book called ‘Tunnels.’
“I really like murder mystery books which sometimes make me cry, this one made me cry a bit when I first read it.”
Leja is reading a Horrible Histories book called ‘The Woeful Second World War.’
“It’s very interesting and gives lots of facts about the Second World War.”
