Action at five is chase-and-tumble — runaway wheelbarrows, daring rescues, small heroes saving the day before tea. Our shelf here is built for wriggly listeners and brand-new readers: big pictures, short bursts and something happening on every page. Each one hand-picked by Hannah, a former English teacher.
