Operation: Happy by Jenni L. Walsh
A middle grade historical fiction based on a memoir. Contains some traumatic incidents that might be too much for sensitive children. A good option, otherwise.

I expected to and did enjoy "Ernest Cunningham's" second novel (by Aussie author Benjamin Stevenson, of course), Everyone on This Train Is a Suspect. The trademark humour is there, along with murders and secrets. Good fun!
My review of Everyone on this Train is a Suspect
I like this children's series that celebrates Big Dreamers. It shows the Little People they once were. Rafa Nadal by Mª Isabel Sánchez Vegara (aka Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara) is about a favourite tennis champion many of us love seeing on the courts.
My review of Rafa Nadal with several illustrations
