I've been thinking a lot this month about heroes and what strength really means. Sometimes it's grand, big things, but other times being a hero is simply about learning to put others first, to get out of your own way and find your own strength. One of my favourite new(ish) books is Kate Hosford's "How The Queen Found The Perfect Cup of Tea" (2017), illustrated by Gabi Swiatkowska. This is one of those fabulous picture books that covers all the bases: humour, adventure, diversity, fabulous language, gorgeous illustrations, and on and on. When the Queen becomes dissatisfied with her daily cup of tea, she sets off around the world to find a better cuppa. But as she encounters children in other countries (and their wide variety of tea-making methods), she's in for more surprises that she anticipates about what truly goes into creating a wonderful teatime experience.
