Children's Books Picks: Christmas Guide 2024

Top picks22nd November 2024

Combining beautiful illustrations with engaging stories, our picture book picks are populated with cheeky rabbits, funny pigeons, and children with a thirst for adventure! They all inspire curiosity and kindness, sparking our little ones’ imagination.  And Scotland is home to brilliant children’s writers such as Nadine Aisha Jassat, Alastair Chisholm, Abi Elphinstone and Joseph Coelho. Their new books are amongst our favourite children’s fiction titles of 2024, featuring here among the likes of Benjamin Dean and Kiran Millwood Hargrave. We hope young readers will love them just as much as we do!
