Bad Panda: Mites, Camera, Action!
by Swapna Haddow
This is the third hilarious book featuring Lin, aka Bad Panda. In this story, a documentary crew has come to film life in the zoo, then decide to bring in animal actors instead as they find the zoo animals boring. Lin and her friends are affronted, and she is determined to be on camera to send a message to her brother back at the panda sanctuary. A delightfully silly chapter book series by an award-winning author, perfect for kids starting to read by themselves.

The Best New Books for 6-8 Year Olds, recommended by Our Children's Editor
The past year has been a particularly good year for chapter books for emerging readers. It can be hard to find good books for 5-8 year olds to read for pleasure (as opposed to learning to read), but this year has a great crop of entertaining easy reads. Our children’s editor, Tuva Kahrs, picks her favourites.
