What we shelve is a mountain... from a certain point of view.

When your mates at @penguinbooksnz send you a gorgeous print but your wall space is rather spoken for with shelving, you find an excuse to make a beautiful new sign for the NZ Picture Book section! Featuring art from Helen Taylor's Kiwi Baby/Pīpī Kiwi.

Passers-by were serenaded by this talented wee violinist this afternoon. Music and books – it's all art and creativity!

A little shop tucked into bed for the night.

Black voices telling black stories for all readers to experience. There are junior titles and young adult titles, graphic novels and chapter books, fantasy and scifi and real life drama. These are few of our current picks, but we are always more than happy to source titles we don't currently have – some may need to be tracked down from special suppliers if they aren't regularly available In Australasia but we are always happy to do some sleuthing! #ownvoices

Inclusive and instructive, empowering and important. There are many ways to start having critical conversations about today's world with your tamariki, and utilising the mahi and mana of black writers and creators to steer those discussions is one way to do it. These are a few of those voices – if you have seen another title recommended in these recent days that you would like, let us know and we will do what we can do source it for you.

Tālofa lava! O le Vaiaso o le Gagana Sāmoa lēnei vaiaso - it's Sāmoa Language Week. We have an ever-growing wee collection of books in Sāmoan, so if you want to practise your tautala i le Gagana Sāmoa, swing on by to take a peek at some of the awesome options from publishers like @huiapublishers and @little.island.press and writers like @milasdm and @jahrijahjah!

Some animals get a bad rap - and that's just not fair! This book's here to celebrate some of those creatures who have struggled to get in everyone's good graces, whether it's sharks or hyenas. You might just find yourself reconsidering some long-held grudges!⠀
