Am I Yours (PB) (New)

An egg has blown from its nest, an icy wind is picking up, and five very friendly dinosaurs are absolutely determined to get it home before dark, if only they could work out whose it actually is. Alex Latimer's warm, funny picture book sends a lost egg on a gentle adventure through a host of brilliantly realised dinosaur species, with a guessing-game structure that has young children calling out answers and turning pages as fast as they possibly can. The kind of story that feels like it has always existed, and that your child will want read to them repeatedly until you know it by heart too.

We love it because:

• The guessing-game structure is brilliantly involving for young children, proper participatory reading
• A genuinely warm and funny story that introduces dinosaur species without it ever feeling like a lesson
• Alex Latimer has a gift for comic timing and characters children fall for immediately
• The reassuring message at the heart of it, that belonging matters and kindness finds a way, lands beautifully
• A new edition of a much-loved story that deserves to find lots of new readers
