It's Lizzy's first day in a brand new school! At first things feel
“just so” scary and “just so” hard, but in the end,
they’re “just so”.... not what she thought they would be!
From waking up early and boarding the bus for the very first time
to meeting new friends and painting outside the lines, it’s a day
of discovery and perspective for a little girl named Lizzy.
Zombie in the Basement is the heartwarming tale of Alfie, an
adorable young zombie who lives with Andrew and his family. Their
special houseguest struggles to learn how to cope with being
different than everyone else while Andrew and his family help to
teach Alfie how to manage the situations that arise from his
condition. We're all different, and that's a good thing. Our
children should be taught to proudly march to the beat of their own
drum, and to embrace the individuality that exists in the world
around them. It's up to us to give them enough love and support to
find their own way without leading them by the hand and doing it
for them. In this first book of the Zombie in the Basement series,
Alfie, Andrew and their friends try to get the zombie's foot back
from the neighbor's dog Scooter. The job is made more difficult
when the neighbor, who doesn't like Alfie because he's different,
refuses to help. Will the boys ever get Alfie's foot back?

A hopeful and moving coming-of-age story set on the island of
Lindisfarne, by David Almond, author of the bestselling Skellig and
A Song for Ella Grey: now with fantastic illustrations by the
award-winning David Litchfield. Louise has travelled with her
father to the island of Lindisfarne every year ever since she can
remember - it's the place Louise's mother loved best of all. The
arrival of Hassan from war-torn Syria changes everything. Louise is
restless and yearning for independence; meanwhile, the fiercely
free and self-reliant Hassan seems to know the island from long ago
as if it were his home from birth. Hassan is an acrobat, maybe a
sorcerer, possibly a source of great danger. The wild boys who call
the island their home want to cast him out. The forces of love,
death and hope move Louise and Hassan together. Lindisfarne will
change their lives forever. David Almond is the author of many
beloved and prize-winning books for children and teenagers. His
best known work, Skellig, won the Whitbread Children's Award and
the Carnegie Medal and was made into a feature-length film. A Song
for Ella Grey, a beautiful retelling of the myth of Orpheus, won
the Guardian Children's Book Prize 2015.

like peas! Is it possible that his sister could help him change his
mind by showing them how cool they can be? A fun, fantastical
picture book which might just encourage little ones to give peas a
