Mint Choc Chip at the Market Café by Jonathan Meres and Hannah Coulson is the latest addition to the popular Little Gems series for early readers and explores the very special bond between young children and their grandparents. Priya loves helping out at her family’s market stall. She spends her Saturdays rummaging around the market with her friends. But one day she meets Stan. His dad sells everything from dog treats to fish tanks – just like the Sharma family! Priya is horrified that their family stall could be in danger, but Nana-ji is on hand to offer a life lesson – over a bowl of ice cream, of course. The book is beautifully illustrated in colour by Hannah Coulson.
Mint Choc Chip at the Market Café by Jonathan Meres, illustrated by Hannah Coulson, is published on 15 October by Barrington Stoke priced £6.99.
