Sixteen souls for me.
The Chestnut Roaster has such an intriguing cover
Love the mystery of a lighthouse and the characters at the top, with the thrashing waves beneath. Beautifully done.
They are all gorgeous in different ways, tough choice but the kids in my class liked the Patrice Lawrence cover.
All done love Ghostlight
Love the colours in The Chestnut Roadter
Loved The Chestnut Roaster. I will see what my year 4 class like the best. It was the complete opposite of last round's results.
Hard choice this time between The Chestnut Roaster and The Elemental Detectives but in the end, it was the cover of The Elemental Detectives that drew me to the book int he first place, so I had to pick that one
Love the birds and the energy in The Wilder, just edging it for me, they're all brilliant though.
The Chestnut Roaster is gorgeous
