Ben Pole is on the run from school bully Monty Grabbe, when he
discovers an amazing secret wood. There's rope swings, water slides, a
wombat called Herbert - and best of all, KING COO - a genius full of
secrets, mysteries and incredible inventions.
Ben, Herbert and King Coo will need all their wits about them to thwart
Monty Grabbe's dastardly ways . . . Cow-pat-a-pults at the ready!
The only guy in the world who could kiss me was about to be taken out by some Nightling with a vendetta against his family. Fallon Bane thought that being cursed to feel pain every time she was touched was the worst thing that would ever happen to her. She was wrong. The worst thing was finding and falling for Ariyon―the only person in the realm who can touch her―only to accidentally trap him in the land of souls and swap powers with him. Now she must act as Maven healer to Queen Solana while trying to figure out how to sneak into the Realm of Eternity to save Ariyon. She drove me crazy, in both good and bad ways, and all I wanted to do was finally kiss her, hold her, feel her body relax into mine like it'd found its missing other half. Aryion Madden had enough to deal with: heir to the throne, Maven healing powers that meant he would die young, and orphaned by Marissa Bane. Then, he met Marissa's daughter and fell in love, upending everything he thought he knew. Now, he has to fight for his life―and maybe his afterlife―against the undead using Fallon's dark magic. And if that's not enough to worry about, all the while, the prophesied Nightling war is approaching.

The neighbours all complain about the foxes hanging around the flat where Cassie lives, close to the River Thames, but Cassie thinks they’re beautiful. Her favourite is a small fox with a white tail-tip, who she names Frost. One night she catches sight of him out in the snow, looking cold and thin, and decides to sneak him some food. But Frost seems to want her to follow him...
As he leads Cassie towards the river she feels the world change around her and finds herself in the back in the seventeenth century – at the time of the Frost Fair on the frozen Thames. At first she is thrilled by the sights and sounds of the famous fair, then she glimpses a fox with a white tail-tip. It appears that Frost wants her to follow him again. Can she find a way to return the fox to his countryside home?
An magical wintry tale from best-selling author Holly Webb. For fans of Michael Morpurgo and THE SNOW FOAL, this is the perfect book to snuggle up with and enjoy this winter.
