Tasmanian devil / John Lesley.

A Tasmanian devil screeching in the forest sounds like a huge, fearsome animal. They certainly do have strong jaws and sharp teeth, but the Tasmanian devil is no bigger than a little dog. They can be aggressive and angry, but some of them allow zookeepers to cuddle them. They have double personalities, many survival issues, and are dangerously close to extinction.

Your brilliant brain / Philip Bunting.

It is pretty easy to argue that the human brain is the most extraordinary thing in the known universe. But there is so much we don't know about the thing behind our eyes. Where do thoughts come from? Why do we dream? Why have our brains become 10% smaller over the past ten to twelve thousand years? Why do we get brain-freeze? Why!? Okay, that last one ... we do know the answer to. But there is much to learn and much fun to be had by taking a quick poke around the human brain (which would feel a bit like tofu, or firm jelly, if you did poke it). Told with Philip Bunting's inimitable wit, this new non-fiction picture book will explore the most fascinating part of the human body, the bit that makes you YOU, your brain.

The secret life of bugs / Moira Butterfield, Vivian Mineker.

Let Luna, a friendly ladybird, lead you through this beautiful first guide to bug life. Learn about bug habitats -- who lives where, from teeny tiny bugs (featherwing beetles) to the largest of critters (giant stick insect and goliath beetles). Find out the amazing things that bugs can do, like flying high or disguising themselves. Read magical creepy crawly folklore stories from around the planet, too. The ladybird has learnt much on her travels and will be a great guide for young readers, perhaps inspiring them to develop a lifelong love of bugs. Sadly, many insects are under threat, so the Ladybird guide will be an ideal character to teach children about pollution and climate change, and encourage them to care about all creepy crawlies. Sumptuous and detailed illustrations take pride of place in this magical book that mixes natural history with a splash of fantasy, creating a book to be pored over time and again. There's never been a better time to introduce your child to the beauty of every living thing, even the teeny tiny.

We need to talk about death / Sarah Chavez, Annika Le Large.

An educational book that helps grieving children understand what happens when we die, and celebrates the traditions people around the world use to honour the dead. Death is an important part of life, and yet it is one of the hardest things to talk about - for adults as well as children.

Full of practical tips, this book won't stop the pain of losing a loved one or a pet, but it may give young readers ideas for different ways they can celebrate those who have passed away, and help begin the healing process.
