Lawyer and former prosecutor Lisa Ellery brings all her expertise into her impressive debut novel, Private Prosecution. I'm not sure if I was meant to, but I found it fast-paced, funny and clever. It will be interesting to see what this Aussie author does next.5★s

The Story of Climate Change: A first book about how we can help save our planet by Catherine Barr is just what it says. Attractive and surprisingly informative for a children's book. Goes right back to before the dinosaurs. Cute cartoonish drawings.
4.5~5★ Link to my review of Story of Climate Change with several illustrations.
This one's for dads, or rather kids with dads. My Dad by Susan Quinn shows a cute little kid with a dad who is a happy, fulltime parent. Warm, fuzzy stuff and nicely imaginative.
4.5★ Link to my My Dad review with selected illustrations.
Ordinary Grace by William Kent Krueger is such a favourite of so many readers that I finally just had to read it. If you haven't yet, do! Great characters, family, mystery, tragedy - the works!

Readers may want to book a chiropractic appointment for The Rising Tide, there are so many twists and turns, shocks and surprises before the nail-biting climax in this cleverly plotted second novel by British author, Sam Lloyd. This one definitely lives up to the hype: impossible to put down. 5★shttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
