Sometimes — when you can’t decide what to read next — a friend can recommend just the sort of book you’ve been looking for. Our TOP READS TEAM is a group of keen readers who stop by each month to recommend a favourite read for the month, and they’re all kids like you! Today we are very excited to be introducing the 2015 team.
