The Katie Morag Treasury

By Mairi Hedderwick (The Bodley Head, hardback, £19.99)

Katie Morag fans will love this treasury, which starts with a letter from Mairi Hedderwick to her hugely popular creation. To follow are pictures of Katie Morag's family tree and bedroom, as well as a picture of the Isle of Struay, and to round off is a Katie Morag quiz.

The treasury alternates the much-loved Katie Morag stories with six folktales from Grannie's Island Ceilidh, which featured in the CBeebies' series and are printed exclusively in this collection.

Bringing all the stories together in this single volume only reinforces Hedderwick's achievement in conjuring up an endearing character, a tight-knit community and a glorious landscape.
