Soaking up summer with a good book and a cool drink, because rest is part of the hero’s journey too.

Our #BookOfTheDay is a fantastic read about superheroes, comic books - and friendship.

Finished Leon 2 by @jamarnicholas @scholasticuk and what a super sequel. I really think the issue of a friend becoming too big for their boots after a success is rarely delved into too deeply and it's very effectively done here. Great humour too and it needs to be continued!!

The Times children's book of the week is...
'Sidekicks' by @dsantat. a supremely slick graphic novel for younger readers about pets in training to become superheroes.
'Leon' by @jamarnicholas also provides another excellent riff on caped crusaders...
