Bron, an enslaved young Saxon, does the hard work that his master,
the village blacksmith, would rather avoid. His reward is a lack of
food and cruel jeers from other, non enslaved children in the
village. But, unbeknown to all, war is brewing. And when a famous
Saxon warlord arrives at his village Bron gets a chance to prove
that honour and bravery are not only for those who are already
free... A tale of friendship and the desire to belong, this
adventure resonates with all children and immerses readers in the
Anglo-Saxon era, with plenty of detail about the myths and culture
of that time. This new edition contains a helpful guide on how to
pronounce the Anglo-Saxon names in the book. Freedom for Bron has
been shortlisted for the 2017 James Reckitt Hull Children s Book
Award for KS2. Accompanying KS2 activity sheets can be downloaded

Die storie begin met die ontdekking van 'n reusagtige swart veer.
Is die towenaars en krygers dalk so besig om teen mekaar te baklei dat hulle nie agterkom dat ’n oeroue bose mag teruggekeer het nie? Is daardie veer dalk regtig ’n hekseveer?

Amari and the Night Brothers meets Pokémon in this thrilling start to Graci Kim's brand-new fantasy series where dragons and phoenixes roam the skies of Seoul, meals magically appear based on your mood and dreams literally come to life! Dare to enter a world of secrets and spells, where dragons and phoenixes roam the skies, and your wildest dreams - or your darkest nightmares - come to life before your eyes. . . . Fourteen-year-old Aria Loveridge lives at the Resthaven Home for Dreamslingers, a refuge for children born with genetic mutations that transport them to a powerfully magical realm while they sleep. But this magic can be unpredictable - even deadly. After all, it was only ten years ago when members of the Royal League of Dreamslingers caused the Great Outburst - a tragedy that killed hundreds of people, including Aria's mum. Since then, Aria's dad has become the leading expert on dreamslinger welfare, which means Aria knows exactly what it takes to keep society (and slingers) safe: separation, identification, and most importantly, power suppression. So when the Kingdom of Royal Hanguk - home of the Royal League - opens their dreamslinger trials to teenage slingers from around the world, Aria knows what she must do: join the Trials and take down the League from the inside. But the Trials introduce Aria to a world of wondrous magic and friendship, a world where she finally feels like she belongs. And as dark secrets from the past are revealed - ones that make Aria question her very identity - she becomes even more determined to discover the truth for herself. She just has to survive the Trials first.
