Join Marcus and friends as they solve another mystery in The Breakfast Club Adventures: The Goblin's Revenge. This is the sixth exciting adventure by England International footballer, child food-poverty campaigner and bestselling author Marcus Rashford MBE. Inspired by Marcus's own experiences growing up! A vengeful goblin is targeting bullies at Rutherford School. Notes warning students to 'be nice or be next' start appearing after each incident and soon no one is safe from the goblin’s wrath - not even the Breakfast Club Investigators. As the school descends into chaos, the headteacher threatens to cancel the annual science competition unless the creature is caught. Can Marcus and his friends stop the goblin before it’s too late? Written with Isaac Hamilton-McKenzie and packed with tons of illustrations by Marta Kissi, The Breakfast Club Adventures: The Goblin's Revenge is the perfect book for children aged 8+.
Set up high on the cliffs, in the grounds of a ruined monastery,
overlooking the dreary town of Blinkton-on-Sea, is the otherwise
unremarkable Blinkton High School. Here resides the enigmatic Inky
Stevens - a talented and astute student, better known as "the Great
School Detective." What appears to be a trivial search for a
missing set of keys soon turns much more sinister with our hero
facing mortal danger. Will Inky unlock this case and find the key
to his survival or will he meet a horrific end?
Wikus Lombaard is 'n nice ou. Hy is kaptein van die eerste
rugbyspan en met sy dodelike skopskoen het hy sy span al meermale
uit die verknorsing gered. En sy meisie, Marissa, is die mooiste in
die skool. En al sukkel Wikus nou so 'n bietjie met die wiskunde,
is dit ook nie die ergste nie. Met Marissa by hom en die rugby wat
voorle, is dinge doodreg – hy weet mos immers waaroor dit gaan in
die lewe, veral noudat hy in die vakansie met sy suster se vriendin
gevry het – behoorlik gevry. All-the-way. Maar in hierdie laaste
skooljaar van hom, kort voor sy deelname aan die Cravenweek, loop
dinge skeef. Lelik skeef. Vir die eerste keer ontdek Wikus dat die
lewe ook reels het. En dat dit nie net in rugby is dat 'n ou van
die veld afgejaag kan word nie.

Squid Game meets They Both Die at the End in the first in a thrilling
new YA series.
We are in an epidemic. An epidemic of unhappiness.
Friends, here is the good news: HappyHead has the answer.
When Seb is offered a place on a radical retreat designed to solve the
national crisis of teenage unhappiness, he is determined to change how
people see him and make his parents proud. But as he finds himself
drawn to the enigmatic Finn, Seb starts to question the true nature of
the challenges they must undergo. The deeper into the programme the
boys get, the more disturbing the assessments become, until it’s clear
there may be no escape...
The third book in the irresistible series about chosen family, high stakes thievery, and what it really means to do good. Perfect for fans of M.G. Leonard and Anthony Horowitz
It's Gabriel's third year at Crookhaven School for Thieves. Along with the usual Break-In challenge - this year to Reclamation island - and difficult new classes like Signs & Signals, Gabriel and his friends have another goal: taking down the Nameless.
The Nameless are the very worst type of criminals - they steal, trick and kidnap for their own benefit, rather than to do good in the world. Each member of Gabriel's crew has a very personal reason for wanting to take the Nameless down - but what can a group of underage school children do compared to the most powerful crew of the underworld?
Luckily, there might be something hidden at Crookhaven that could help them. But first they have to find it...
The third book in the 'criminally good' Crookhaven series, the secret school where students are taught to do wrong, so that one day, they can put the world to rights.
