Our list below covers books for all ages, and ranges from the practical to the philosophical with a particularly Australian bent.

Julianne says: This book! I can’t tell you how brilliant it is…well I can actually. It’s magnificent! It is laugh-out-loud funny, has the best cast of characters you will ever meet, a mystery, an edge of your seat heist, animals (and no, not just a chameleon) and most of all it has the most beautiful atmosphere of kindness. It is a great big warm hug of a book that made me so happy.
The world is a better place for having this book in it.
