No 28 in my #FavePicturebooks25 is “The Search for our Cosmic Neighbours” by Chloe Savage A cosmic quest with heart! Stunning watercolor art, gentle humour, and a hopeful message about discovery and what it means to find home. Thoughtful as it is beautiful. #PicturebookPage

It’s the Mid-Autumn Festival on 6th October so there’s no better time than to read The Moon Rabbit. Beautifully illustrated, this powerful retelling of the legend of Chang’e is a brilliant picture book you’ve got to share with your children. Thanks @walkerpicbooks
