Oliver Jeffers‘ latest book, Up and Down, is not only gorgeously illustrated, but the story (about a penguin’s wish to fly) is sweet, too. Click over to the Up & Down book site to see extracts + print out activity sheets, or just go straight to amazon and order. Long live picture books.

    Oliver Jeffers is my absolute favourite. My students love him too.I just picked up “The Heart and the Bottle’ – heartbreakingly beautiful.
