SHORTLISTED for the CILIP Carnegie Medal, WINNER of the UKLA 'A
masterpiece from beginning to end.' Angie Thomas, author of The
Hate U Give AND THEN THERE WERE SHOTS Everybody ran, ducked, hid,
tucked themselves tight. Pressed our lips to the pavement and
prayed the boom, followed by the buzz of a bullet, didn't meet us.
After Will's brother is shot in a gang crime, he knows the next
steps. Don't cry. Don't snitch. Get revenge. So he gets in the lift
with Shawn's gun, determined to follow The Rules. Only when the
lift door opens, Buck walks in, Will's friend who died years ago.
And Dani, who was shot years before that. As more people from his
past arrive, Will has to ask himself if he really knows what he's
doing. This haunting, lyrical, powerful verse novel will blow you
away. 'A heartrending and convincing blank verse narrative.' Sunday
Times, BOOKS OF THE YEAR 'Astonishing.' Kirkus Reviews 'A tour de
force.' Publishers Weekly 'Will attract teenagers who don't
consider themselves 'readers'.' The Inis Reading Guide
Princess Minna loves to sort out mix-ups and mishaps in the
kingdom! In this full-colour, illustrated chapter book, join her on
a funny, exciting adventure to wake a sleeping prince and much more
- all in time for tea. Princess Minna lives in Castle Tall-Towers
with the King and Queen, Raymond the Wizard and her best dragon
friend, Lorenzo. There are often mix-ups and mishaps in the kingdom
and Princess Minna loves to sort them out! She can tame unicorns,
kiss frogs and fight dragons (apart from Lorenzo) and she is very
good at fixing things before it's time for bed. In The Enchanted
Forest, Princess Minna has to wake a sleeping prince before
nightfall. But along the way, she finds a swan, an old lady and a
very fluffy sheep - all of them in a fix! Can she help them and
still reach the prince before sundown? Full of colourful
illustrations, these short, funny stories are perfect for readers
just moving on from picture books and visual readers.
