Pick up your copy of "Kiwi taste sensations" from the library. It's a list of New Zealands top 75 books of the year as chosen by a book seller, a librarian, a Book Month organiser and a blogger. The handout is divided into three sections."Top 25 tasty bites" - entertaining reads, perfect for dipping in and out of.
"Top 25 meaty meals - serious or indepth reads.
"Top 25 on the kids' menu - 25 classic or will-be classic reads for children and teens.
All the choices are subjective so if you disagree or want to add your own, let us know.
Two of my all-time favourites are on the children's list
"The changeover : a supernatural romance" by Margaret Mahy. "Laura Chant knew that the face in the mirror was a sign of something dreadful coming. The evil Carmody Braque branded her young brother, and Jacko was ill, getting worse. The only way to save him was to change over-releasing her supernatural powers, joining forces with the mysterious Sorenson Carlisle."
"Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy " by Lynley Dodd."When Hairy Maclary and his canine friends go for a walk and encounter Scarface Claw, the toughest Tom in town, they run away."
