PattyMacDotComma | 3310 comments Who says education can't be fun? The World is Full of Nouns by Elizabeth Lareau will set them straight! Lots of colourful pictures with some nouns identified and where kids can find even more 'things'.

Chernobyl The Fall of Atomgrad by Matyáš Namai
A graphic novel about the Chernobyl nuclear disaster. Won't have much to offer if you have already read other nonfiction works on the topic, but a good book for those who want a quick gist of the events.

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9985 comments The plot of the 32nd book in James Patterson's Alex Cross series, Alex Cross Must Die, bears no relation to the title, but still lots of action and drama. 4★s

PattyMacDotComma | 3310 comments I am stretching out my favourite Sebastian St Cyr Historical Mystery Series by C.S. Harris to try to make them last. They are the best. Why Kill the Innocent is #13, and the Frost Fair and wintry weather were as chilling as the murders. Terrific atmosphere.
