Whenever I read this book to Margot, I’d read the “I love you” part and Margot would finish the sentence. Lola is nearly big enough to go to school. But in her opinion she is still really quite small, and has far too many important things to keep her extremely busy at home. I received a copy of I Love You, Blue by Barroux from Blue Slip Media, Barroux, and Flyaway Books in exchange for an honest review. We have to credit the idea to Fiona Lang, Nurture Teacher at Meldrum Primary School in West Lothian, and we’re fairly sure you’ll get the gist of how she used the orange cog magnifying glass with her group by looking at this photograph. I mean, Blue saves the day by rescuing the boat from a raging storm, and then the boy turns superhero by pulling out all those plastic bags from Blue's belly. It's a cool message about the whole ocean plastic issue, which we all need to be aware of, but I was expecting a bit more depth in the plot.

The latest version of Margot’s favourite book “I love you, Blue Kangaroo!” is now in the shops and available online… The charming illustrations are simple and sweet; the text is spare and authentic as it gently conveys the importance of caring for the earth and all living things, particularly ocean creatures threatened by plastic pollution. The blues of the whale, the ocean, and the earth subtly reinforce the interconnectedness of all things.

I read the book with my five-year-old daughter and she loved the story but it also made us feel a little sad about what is happening and what could have happened if Blue hadn’t been found

It’s World Blood Cancer Day & 500 pubs and bars are making their mark by supporting ‘Pinkspiration Week’ That’s why we’re so delighted that Team Margot are about to launch their first International Stem Cell and Bone Marrow Awareness Day.
