Our Library by Donna Rawlins
Join us as we celebrate Harmony Week by reading the book Our Library by Donna Rawlins. A story about children coming together, trying new things and enjoying time at the library.
Suzy is a friendly children’s librarian. Each day Suzy sets up different fun activities for the children and families to do. They have made a new friend day, dinosaur day, I can do it day, wiggle and jiggle day and nature day. The library becomes a place where children can play, explore and learn together.
This book helps us talk about kindness, belonging, celebrating diversity and supporting inclusion. A wonderful way to celebrate Harmony Week.

I Spy on the Farm by Edward Gibbs
I Spy on the Farm is a playful book that encourages children to interact with the story by play a guessing game as they explore different farm animals. Each page shows a small ”spy hole” revealing a clue, such as a pattern or colour. When children turn the page, they find an illustration of the animal.
The bright colours, and friendly animal illustrations using simple and playful text, make this book a delight to read with your child.
- I Spy on the Farm encourages
- Active participation
- Builds vocabulary and language skills
- Strengthens memory and reasoning
- Supports interactions and engagement.
