You Just Need to Laugh
Sometimes, you just need to open up a book and laugh out loud
If you need to press pause on your stress-o-dometer level, then find this picture book by Aaron Blabey.
He is the author who reminded me how you can find life on the pages of a picture book (well, a really good picture book, by a really good writer ).
As you can see, it is called 'The Dreadful Fluff'. I will just repeat: it is written by Aaron Blabey, and published by Penguin Group 2012.
I can't remember how many times I have read it.
I am still laughing........
Go and meet Aaron. I think you might just love him as much you love his books.

What a fantastic idea for a blog. I've loved reading picturebooks for years but since teaching in a secondary school I've lost touch with recently published picturebooks. I look forward to following your blog to acquaint me with some new gems and to remind me of forgotten favourites.
