Woohoo - @alexandrabreezeceramics will be popping-up at The Little Bookshop this Saturday!
🌈
Alexandra is a talented artist who specialises in ceramics - her signature pieces are beautifully crafted tiles and hangers of Dutch houses and local monuments.
🌈
BUT, did you know, that Alexandra also takes commissions? Would you like your house immortalised in clay, or is there a Dutch landmark that is special to you? Yes, I hear you cry. Then you are in luck…!
Need 24 personalised house hangers? A pair of Dutch house cuff links or a ceramic tile of the Wassenaar windmill (not wrapped in tarpaulin, obviously, but in its full splendour!)? YES!?! Then why not stop by the shop on Saturday and have a chat with Alexandra about your very own piece of bespoke artwork.
🌈
ALL THIS AND A SHOP FULL OF GORGEOUS BOOKS - what more could you want of a Saturday afternoon?! WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE!!
🌈
Also, @humphrey_nl The Shop Dog thinks you should definitely visit The Little Bookshop this weekend! Just look at that adorable little face!!

LOOKING FOR EMILY, by Fiona Longmuir, illustrated

LOOKING FOR EMILY, by Fiona Longmuir, illustrated by Carmi Grau
@fiona_clicks @carmigrau @nosycrow
🌈
When twelve-year-old Lily moves to the sleepy seaside town of Edge, she’s sure that nothing exciting is ever going to happen to her again. But when she stumbles upon a secret museum hidden in the middle of town, she realises that there might be more to her new home than meets the eye.
The Museum of Emily is filled with the belongings of one seemingly ordinary girl – a girl who, many years ago, disappeared from the town without a trace. With the help of her new friends Sam and Jay, Lily is determined to solve the mystery and find out who Emily was, why she disappeared and who has created the strange, hidden museum.
🌈
Perfect for ages 9+
🌈
I’ve not read this fab sounding book yet - but, a story about a museum and a mystery?!? YES PLEASE!!!

England, 1893, and aquarium fever is at its height.
Twelve-year-old Vinnie Fyfe works in the tea-shop at Brighton aquarium, and waits for her milliner mother to return from Paris.
The arrival of a giant octopus changes her life for ever. Discovering a talent for art, Vinnie begins to draw the extraordinary beast.
She soon realises she can communicate with the octopus through colour and – as a gripping mystery begins to unfold – discovers what true courage really means …

Perfect for ages 9+

We went to a wedding…!!!
🌈
There was love, and laughter, and sunshine, and bubbles, and singing, and dancing, and oh so much happiness! All wrapped up in a fabulous group of people - proof that strangers are often friends you’ve yet to meet. Days like today restore one’s faith in human kind.
💜
Thank you Kelly and Irene for including us in your special day, it was both a joy and a privilege xxx

It’s now 01:08 and we’re heading home. ETA 01:55.
Saturday Story Time may be a little subdued…

OUR BIG DAY, by @bobjohnstonbooks and @michaelembe

OUR BIG DAY, by @bobjohnstonbooks and @michaelemberley
🌈
Everyone loves a good wedding! A colourful and joyful book about love, equality, and a dog called Bear!
🌈
In other news, we will be closed on Friday (17th) as we are off to the wedding of some good friends. I’m very much hoping there will be music, dancing, sunshine, cake and lots and lots of love…and maybe even a dog*!
🌈
*…but not our Bookshop Dog @humphrey_nl , obviously, as he is a total menace and would definitely eat the rings and probably steal the brides shoes when they weren’t looking!
