Nellie Belle

Age: 3-7

Mem Fox is one of children’s picture books’ most prolific, talented, and adored authors, and with Nellie Belle, she’s delivered another winner. The irrepressible sing-song text follows a spirited pup as she escapes from home, has fun outdoors, has a little too much fun and then decides that back in her bed, “cuddled up with dear old Ted,” is the best place to be. An absolute joy to read aloud.
