harrowing yet hopeful account of a teen living with Tourette
syndrome and obsessive-compulsive disorder while contemplating his
own mortality. Ten: three little letters, one ordinary number. For
Troy Hayes, a 16-year-old suffering from Tourette syndrome and
obsessive-compulsive disorder, the number ten dictates his life,
forcing him to do everything by its exacting rhythm. Fed up with
the humiliation, loneliness, and physical pain, Troy creates a list
of ten things to do by the tenth anniversary of his diagnosis
culminating in suicide. But the process of working his way through
the list changes Troy. He becomes friends with Khory, who
unwittingly helps Troy cross off items on his list, even as she
shows him that life may have more possibilities than he imagined.

The spellbinding sequel to Tom Fletcher's bestselling magical adventure, The Christmasaurus.
'She is the best-kept Christmas secret of all,' whispered Santa Claus. 'Which is surprising, because Christmas itself would not exist without her. She is older than time itself, yet still as young as tomorrow. She is known only as the Winter Witch.'
One year has passed since William Trundle's incredible adventure with the most extraordinary dinosaur: the Christmasaurus. Now, William is swept back to the magical North Pole, where he meets the mysterious, icy Winter Witch - whose power to control time allows Santa Claus to make the long journey all around the world every Christmas Eve.
And when they learn that the fate of Christmas itself hangs in the balance, William and the Christmasaurus must work with the Winter Witch to protect it...
Full of magic and music, humour and heart, and a friendship like no other, The Christmasaurus and the Winter Witch is the most enchanting Christmas read for the whole family.
What if every young girl loved her body? Love Your Body encourages
you to admire and celebrate your body for all the amazing things it
can do (like laugh, cry, hug and feel) and to help you see that you
are so much more than your body. Bodies come in all different forms
and abilities. All these bodies are different and all these bodies
are good bodies. There is no size, ability or colour that is
perfect. What makes you different makes you, you - and you are
amazing! Love Your Body introduces the language of self-love and
self-care to help build resilience, while representing and
celebrating diverse bodies, encouraging you to appreciate your
uniqueness. This book was written for every girl, regardless of how
you view your body. All girls deserve to be equipped with the tools
to navigate an image-obsessed world. Featuring a special surprise
poster on the jacket, this book will show you that freedom is
loving your body with all its "imperfections" and being the
perfectly imperfect you!
