SUMMER BOOK CLUB: 15 lovely new titles
PLUS the UK's first Girls in Dance Festival
Good evening
Here’s the latest round-up of new books to read this summer! Have you read any of them? Please let us know in the comments - we love to hear from you and we are always keen to know your recommendations, too.
Books for Children: Summer
Review highlight of When I’m Big: “This warm and beautifully told story reminds us there’s no rush to grow up. The future is a mystery to be enjoyed as it unfolds. There are lots of dinosaurs to identify as you turn the pages. Perhaps you’ll realise what Fern will be when she grows up before she does.”
Books for Adults: Summer
Review highlight of How to Fall in Love with the Future: “Hopkins is a fantastically inspiring writer and I was surprised by the power of this approach in reframing the task ahead. It gave me a new perspective on the future and how we might arrive there. Rather than worrying about what might be possible, time travel relieves you of the burden of uncertainty.”
Books for Inspiration: Peaceful Slumber
Review highlight from 500 Dreams: Which One Will You Choose?: “This book has 500 amazing dreams for children to choose from. There’s a different theme on each colourful spread, such as ice age, mythological odyssey, underwater. As children listen to the rhyming words, they can search for the dream ideas hidden in each busy scene. This absorbing and imaginative book helps children fall asleep with happy thoughts.”
Join the UK’s first Girls in Dance Festival on 28 July in Birmingham
This unique day empowers girls aged 13–21 to connect, meet role models, learn about feminist organisations and discover how dance can strengthen body and mind. Inspiring workshops (all suitable for general dance levels), panels and performances await. Celebrate the charity’s 5th anniversary and help build the next generation of creative leaders.

“Listening to this podcast is like a breath of fresh air; real mums talking about real life in a vulnerable, honest and inspirational way.”
This podcast is all about supporting women who are juggling it all, to reduce the mental overload and be calm, present and intentional.
