Emily Mortimer recommended The Amazing Bone in Books (curated)

Book Favorite

"Steig wrote and illustrated the best American children’s books. I love the humor, sophistication and pure romantic sweetness of his drawings and stories. His protagonists (in this case a pig called Pearl and her magical bone,) all still manage to keep hold of a sense of wonder and longing in a frightening world. They are romantic dreamers longing for more. I have loved reading them to my kids."

"Just the title would be enough for me to love this book. I love reading about the South and the motley band of characters that McCullers has drawn; I have a soft spot for the tomboy, Mick Kelly. She’s feisty and feral. There’s a description of her and a bunch of scrappy kids playing at a building site, and that was my childhood; we were never out of those places."

Ok family adventure
I thought I'd give this a go after seeing a trailer. It's based on Dora the explorer cartoon series but giving a live action make over with a teen cast. For a family film it's ok, quite funny in places. It's a bit like a child friendly jumanji and Lara Croft combined. Definitely one for the young kids to enjoy.
