Recommended Spring Reads 2018

Here at Beanfield, we believe reading is extremely important and are always looking for ways to improve our book collections – whether it is in the library, book shop or classrooms. Over the last few weeks, we have been very lucky to have received a wide range of new books in our classroom book corners. This has included both fiction and non-fiction texts from a variety of authors.
