Michael's dream is to go from being an unknown pup to a Hollywoof
sensation and global su-paw-star. But becoming famous is no walkies
in the park... How long will it take Michael's fellow inhabitants
of Snuffles-by-Sea to recognise his amazing talent? And with the
help of his trusty sidekick, Stanley Big Dog, what can possibly go
wrong?
A fresh and irreverent comedy starring a cast of neurodiverse characters - guaranteed to be one of the funniest novels you'll read.
Leon John Crothers is 4779 days old (thirteen years and one month, if you're mathematically challenged). He has been 'moved on' from six different schools and most people think he has an attitude problem. Leon doesn't care for the label, in the same way that he doesn't care for Tim Burton, supermarket trolleys, train fanatics or Bounty bars. This time, however, things may turn out differently, as help comes from where he least expects it - Dr Snot, a physician at pains to help Leon navigate 'normal' and classmates, Tanya and Lawrence, who both face their own challenges.
When school bully Glen Jenkins humiliates Leon in the school canteen and almost destroys Lawrence, Leon very reluctantly agrees to the formation of a club, The Asparagus Bunch. How Leon manages to navigate school woes and family drama - and astonishingly ends up with not one but two friends - is nothing short of a miracle, or maybe just simply down to being different.

A brand-new Winnie-the-Pooh story, featuring the best-loved
characters from the Hundred Acre Wood. Whatever we do, there's
always two, there's Winnie-the-Pooh plus Me. And Pooh said, 'That
is very true.' But sort of wondered if I knew, it was two once, but
then it grew... Someone has come along to join Winnie-the-Pooh and
Christopher Robin on their adventure, but who could it be? It can't
be Kanga and Roo - they're sailing a boat - and it can't be Owl,
because he's at home. Could it be Heffalumps who want to eat Pooh's
beloved honey? Or perhaps Pooh and Christopher Robin are
accompanied by a pair of friends who are never far away on a sunny
day. With a gentle rhyming story by bestselling author Jeanne
Willis, inspired by A. A. Milne's classic poem 'Us Two' from Now We
Are Six, and charming illustrations by Mark Burgess, in the style
of E. H. Shepard, this authorised sequel is the perfect gift for
anyone who loves the enchanting world of Winnie-the-Pooh and
friends.
