Picture Book Matters.
Introducing SHELF Review – a biannual magazine celebrating picture book matters, because picture books matter!
Featuring reviews from seasoned book reviews and picture book fans alike, you'll never feel overwhelmed in a bookshop again with our list of recommended reads for late 2024 and early 2025.
Alongside our reviews, you'll also find brilliant interviews, articles and Q&As from some leading figures in British picture books. From Chris Haughton, to Bumpy Books, to Ness Wood of Orange Beak – and more besides – there's plenty to get stuck into.
If you're reading this, then the chances are that you value and appreciate the work that goes into creating picture books as much as us. In this issue, we're celebrating illustrators, writers, designers, publishers – everyone that goes into making a book. Come join us.
