August 16, 2021 - 07:14 BST Ainhoa Barcelona Reading is undoubtedly a big part of every child's life, not only for the books they come across at school, but also the stories they devour at bedtime. As part of our Back to School digital issue guest-edited by Giovanna Fletcher, we asked Sophie Dahl – author of Madame Badobedah and yet-to-be-released The Worst Sleepover in the World – to recommend her top ten children's books.
We've also added some books that are specifically designed for little ones embarking on the school journey for the first time. Happy reading!Sophie Dahl's top ten children's books: Where The Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak Sendak's classic, which so brilliantly captures how your room can turn into a strange place on your imagination's watch, how you can be King of the Wild Things, but still be lonely.
SHOP NOW Zombierella by Joseph Coelho and illustrated by Freya Hartas A subversive fairy tale with a fantastic, lonely heroine, a hero who *might sleep in a coffin, and an anarchic twist. Ultimately, it's about connection and acceptance. We loved it in our house. SHOP NOW Tales of A Fourth Grade Nothing by Judy Blume Judy Blume speaks the language of kids and teenagers like few others. Peter Hatcher is nine years old and tormented by the antics of his little brother Fudge. I read all of Blume's books as a child, and they still feel as fresh and funny today.
