Here are the books, a mix of practical and fantasy read, along with a couple of activity books:

1. Let’s Make Some Great Art, Marion Deuchar

Interactive coloring and activity book and the girls love to complete the pages and follow the step-by-step instructions for how to draw a bird and how to give it an expression, as well a foolproof method for drawing a bicycle.

2. Les Trois Brigands, Tomi Ungerer

Three robbers prowl the country and store their loot in a mountain cave. One night they stop a carriage and find an orphan, Tiffany, on her way to live with her wicked aunt. Tiffany is delighted to meet the robbers, but appalled at their ill-gotten wealth. What she does to change their ways will … such a great story!

3. The Scribble Book, Hervé Tullet

Encouraged by Herve to pick up a crayon and scribble alongside him, the kids find their own creativity. They will feed scribbles to a hungry monster, scribble water to put out a fire, scribble flames coming out of a volcano, spaghetti for lunch and ski-tracks in the snow. Very enchanting.

4. Harry Potter The Complete Collection, J.K. Rowling
A classic!

5. Monsieur et Madame Anatomie, Godeleine de Rosamel, Françoise de Guibert

This picture book offers a good presentation of the human body, simplifiedshowing its composition and functions.
