New non-fiction for busy fingers and inquisitive minds

What an eclectic (random and mixed up) selectionof new books we have for you this month! And every one of them a great read.

Get Cooking!

I should not be reviewing this book just before lunch! The recipes are amazing and the photographs make the yummy food look so easy to cook. Lemon and lime cake, pancakes and pizzas. Where to start? My favourite is Fridge cake. In my childhood we used to call it fudge cake. Delicious whatever you name it!

  

 

 

 

 

My First Art Activity Book

I have never made bubble wrap bunting, surf board pendants or printed boot bags  but now I really, really want to. The ideas in this activity book are so cool and most of them seem pretty easy so I am going to try them. Check this book out and you can have fun being creative too.

 

 

 

 

Titanic

This year is 100years since the Titanic sank, so of course we have had lots of new books about  this amazing ship and its demise. This is one of the smaller books great for the intermediate reader. Learn heaps and have fun flicking the pages to get a flipbook animation of the sinking!

 

 

 

 

 

Helicopters

 Discover the cutting-edge technology and innovative designs which feature in the very latest helicopters. Whether it’s the Super Stallion CH-53E that can fly 2,000 kilometres without refuelling and then can even refuel midair,  or the CH-47 Chinook that can carry 46 people, helicopters are amazing machines. If you are interested in machines with huge engines then you will love this series.  Motorbikes, Tanks and Miltary Vehicles, Trucks and Warships are other great books in the Ultimate Machines series.
