Fifteen picture books — two Roald Dahl, two Bob Graham, Lynley Dodd, Mo Willems, Julia Donaldson, Pamela Allen, and more. Australian classics alongside beloved international titles.

1. Dharma the Llama — Matt Cosgrove — The drama-llama who finds that being kind is more rewarding than being the centre of attention: warm, funny, and very Australian.

4. I Am Very Brave — Timothy Knapman & Gede Pena — A little monster who is frightened of absolutely everything must face his biggest fear: a beautifully reassuring book for small children.
5. Esio Trot — Roald Dahl, illustrated by Quentin Blake — Mr Hoppy loves his neighbour Mrs Silver but can't find the words. He can, however, find a tortoise — hundreds of them. One of Dahl's most charming short novels.
6. Go Go and the Silver Shoes — Jane Godwin & Anna Walker — A little girl finds a pair of magical silver shoes and discovers what they can do: warmly Australian and beautifully illustrated.
7. Greetings from Sandy Beach — Bob Graham — A family holiday at a crowded Australian caravan park: Bob Graham's quiet, joyful eye for the ordinary life lived well.
8. A Year on Our Farm — Penny Matthews & Andrew McLean — The seasons, the animals, the work and the weather of an Australian farm through the year: a warm, grounded celebration of rural life.
9. One Ted Falls Out of Bed — Julia Donaldson, illustrated by Anna Currey — Ted falls out of bed at midnight and has adventures until morning comes. From the author of The Gruffalo: counting and rhyming for the smallest readers.
10. Revolting Rhymes — Roald Dahl, illustrated by Quentin Blake — Cinderella, Snow White, Goldilocks, Jack and the Beanstalk: the fairy tales retold with Dahl's wicked wit and Blake's immortal illustrations.
11. Lucy Loves Horses — James Davies — A girl who loves horses more than anything builds her own from whatever she can find: playful, inventive, and sweetly determined.
12. Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy — Lynley Dodd — The most beloved dog in New Zealand sets off down the road and meets his match. The book that launched an icon.
13. Silver Buttons — Bob Graham — In the time it takes to button a coat, a new baby takes his first steps: a quietly magnificent book about the big things happening inside the small moments of an ordinary day. Kate Greenaway Medal winner.
14. Mr McGee — Pamela Allen — Mr McGee climbs his apple tree and finds himself blown right out of his clothes: the first of Pamela Allen's irresistible Mr McGee adventures.
15. The Pigeon Has to Go to School — Mo Willems — The Pigeon does NOT want to go to school. What if he doesn't know anything? What if the teacher is mean? What if there's no bus? One of Willems's funniest Pigeon books.
