On display this week we have 3 non-fiction books:
Dinosaurs (Usborne Discovery)
Dinomummy, The Life, Death and Discovery of Dakota, a Dinosaur from Hell Creek
Weird Animals Dictionary (look for the 2 NZ animals - what do you think they are?).
There are 2 picture books:
Haumia and his Kumara, telling how Haumia tricked a taniwha.
Smile starring Sunny McCloud by Leigh Hodgkinson. Sunny has lost her smile and tries to find it.
Our 3 senior fiction books are;
Open for business by Moya Simons, a story about the Walk Right In Detective Agency.
Ferno the Fire Dragon, from the Beast Quest series by Adam Blade.
The Magician's Elephant by Kate DiCamillo (the author of the beautifully written and popular Tale of Despereaux). This book has a very unusual storyline with a mystery of an elephant appearing out of the blue, aimed at our senior readers.
