I'm all for eccentric landlords. Pity help anyone who ever dared order water in my dad's pub. But opening only for weekday lunchtimes?! Hugh Corcoran and Lady Frances are going to have to sell a lot of Scampi Fries to make that work.... https://t.co/yghIBvfn3o

'Anya's Quest', an eco fable spiced with Hindu mythology by Jasbinder Bilan is caught in the classic dilemma facing many kids' books -but it does it beautifully. The artwork by Jane Ray is gorgeous. Anya's Quest is The Times children's book of the week. https://t.co/SDmNfETstO

We don't expect Richard Osman books to have subplots about recycling or Jilly Cooper characters to play naked tennis against a biodiversity crisis in the Cotswolds. It's not fair that kids' books can't just entertain - they also have to save the world. https://t.co/SDmNfETstO

The Times children's book of the week is...'Midnight Treasure' by @PiersTorday A 13-year-old boy on the cusp of becoming a fully fledged "werwolf"goes on a thrilling quest to find vampir treasure - think The Hobbit with extra fangs and fur. @HachetteKids https://t.co/pD9xvbXxhs

The Times children's book of the week is... 'Sidekicks' by @dsantat. a supremely slick graphic novel for younger readers about pets in training to become superheroes. 'Leon' by @jamarnicholas also provides another excellent riff on caped crusaders... https://t.co/fRbgzNx6IL
