"If I really wanted to open up, I'd confess that I really am the
liar everyone believes I am."
Everyone thinks Tola Riley is crazy. Everyone except Mr. Mymer,
her art teacher. He doesn't care about her green hair, or nose
ring--and he gets her paintings and lets her hang out in the art
room during lonely lunch periods.
Although Tola likes to keep to herself, when rumors start flying
about an affair between her and Mr. Mymer, she is suddenly at the
center of a scandal. The whole town is judging her--even her
family. When Mr. Mymer is suspended, she has no choice but to break
her silence. The question is, will anyone believe her?

Free Lunch is the story of Rex Ogle's first term in Year 7. Rex and
his baby brother often went hungry, wore second-hand clothes and
were short of school supplies, and Ogle was on his school's free
lunch programme. Grounded in the immediacy of physical hunger and
the humiliation of having to announce it every day in the school
lunch line, Ogle's is a compelling story of a more profound
hunger-that of a child for his parents' love and care. Compulsively
readable, beautifully crafted and authentically told with the voice
and point of view of an eleven-year-old child, Free Lunch is a
remarkable debut by a gifted storyteller.

award-winning author of children's books, with a particular
interest in health and PSHE topics. The consultant, Dr Kristina
Routh, is a fully qualified medical doctor and specialist in public
health.
A unique and gentle art-therapy-based book to help children come to
terms with their anger through creativity Picturing My Anger

minds to get to know and show their anger. Children are asked to
think about the colours, textures and shapes that express the look
and feel of anger to them. Children consider and recognise how they
act when they're angry and how they can 'speak' about anger through
art if finding words is hard. At the end of the book, children have
a set of self-made resources to use again and again when they need
a reminder of their creative coping skills. All the Colours of Me
is a series of books written by Art Psychotherapist and Mindfulness
Practitioner, Anna Shepherd. The series addresses key emotions in
the life of a child through safe and gentle creative engagement.

Ramona Quimby is the youngest of all the famous characters in Mrs. Cleary's wonderful Henry Huggins stories. She is also far and away the most deadly. Readers of the earlier books will remember that Ramona has always been a menace to Beezus, her older sister, to Henry, and to his dog Ribsy. It is not that Ramona deliberately sets out to make trouble for other people. She simply has more imagination than is healthy for any one person. In this book Ramona and her imagination really come into their own. Starting with a fairly mild encounter with the librarian, which is harder on Beezus than anyone else, Ramona goes from strength to strength, winding up by inviting her entire kindergarten class to a part at her home without mentioning it to her mother. The riot that ensues is probably the most hilarious episode in this extremely funny book, which proves that Mrs. Cleary's imagination is almost as lively as Ramona's.
