After solving the mystery of Tilly’s mother’s disappearance, the bookwandering community is at risk. An extreme group of Librarians have taken over the British Underlibrary and they want to restrict bookwandering.
Tilly and Oskar believe that The Archivists are the key to restoring balance – but nobody has seen them for thousands of years, and most people think they never really existed anyway. Is a journey to the French Underlibrary and a peculiar book of fairytales, the key to discovering their whereabouts?
But wandering into fairytales is dangerous and unpredictable, and the characters aren’t as they seem. Soon, Tilly and Oskar realise that villains don’t just live inside the pages of books. Sometimes, you don’t get to live happily ever after…

DIARIES. 'Fresh, funny and ultra cool' - Jacqueline Wilson Hi! I'm
Edie Eckhart. I'm a little bit different. I have a disability
called cerebral palsy, so I talk slowly and fall over a lot. It's
never really bothered me because I've never known anything else.
This term, Edie Eckhart has A LOT on her mind: 'Why am I the only
one who doesn't know what to be when I grow up? Why am I the only
one worried about going on the school drama trip? And why am I the
only one who thinks eating 21 Brussels sprouts at once is YUMMY?'
Life's confusing questions are making Edie wonder if she REALLY
knows who she REALLY is. Will Edie realise it's OK not to have ALL
the answers ALL of the time ... and just BE EDIE?
My Autism Book is a beautifully illustrated picture book that helps
parents to explain an autism diagnosis to their child in a
sensitive, positive and accurate way. When a child is diagnosed
with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), parents often feel
overwhelmed and uncertain about how to communicate the diagnosis to
their child. This book is designed to be read with the child as a
simple introduction to their diagnosis. Written by a doctor and a
children's author, the book is tailored precisely to the needs and
experiences of the child with ASD aged 5-9. It explains what an
autism diagnosis means and encourages an exploration of the child's
likely strengths and differences using clear language that speaks
directly to the child. The colourful pictures throughout show how
the world looks from the child's perspective and the book ends with
a summary checklist to encourage the child to record and discuss
how autism affects them.
