illustrator Rob Biddulph dazzles in Peanut Jones and the Twelve
Portals. This second title in the funny, exciting adventure series

'He'll be famous - a legend - I wouldn't be surprised if today was known as Harry Potter Day in future - there will be books written about Harry' Minerva McGonagall
Strange things always seem to happen when Harry Potter is around. Things that unsettle his guardians, the Dursleys. They strongly disapprove of strangeness. It's only when a letter arrives, delivered by a shaggy giant of a man called Hagrid, that Harry learns the truth that will transform his entire future: his parents were killed by the evil Lord Voldemort, and he, Harry, is a wizard.
Whisked away to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardy, Harry discovers a world of enchantments, ghosts, Quidditch, and friends who will stand, through everything, by his side. But when Harry hears of a stone with great powers, he finds that his school has its own dark secrets - and an adventure that will become the stuff of legend begins.
These adult editions have been stylishly redesigned to showcase Andrew Davidson's beautiful woodcut cover artwork.
From the author of the unforgettable bestseller TIME TRAVELLING WITH A HAMSTER comes another surprising, beautiful and funny novel about a child who, by disappearing, will write herself into your heart forever…
Turning invisible at will: it’s one way of curing your acne. But far more drastic than 13 year-old Ethel Leatherhead intended when she tried a combination of untested medicines and a sunbed.
It’s fun at first, being invisible. And aided by her friend Boydy, she manages to keep her extraordinary ability secret. Or does she…?
When one day the invisibility fails to wear off, Ethel is thrown into a nightmare of lies and deception as she struggles to keep herself safe, to find the remedy that will make her seen again – and solve the mystery of her own birth…

has finally turned. Mr Vanderpuff is the village baker, and his
shop is a world of wonders. But they soon discover that Bridget is
absolutely terrible at baking. When Miss Acrid returns for the
ultimate revenge, Bridget must open the Locked and Secret Door,
navigate Miss Acrid's spiderweb of booby traps and use her unique
baking skills to save herself - and Mr Vanderpuff - from certain
disaster. Join Bridget as she dons her chef whites and gets the
kwassongs at the ready... Baking isn't such a piece of cake.
