Perpetual daydreamer Liz Buxbaum gave her heart to Michael a long time
ago. But her cool, aloof forever crush never really saw her before he
moved away. Now that he’s back in town, Liz will do whatever it takes
to get on his radar—and maybe snag him as a prom date—even befriend Wes
Bennet.
The annoyingly attractive next-door neighbor might seem like a prime
candidate for romantic comedy fantasies, but Wes has only been a pain
in Liz’s butt since they were kids. Pranks involving frogs and
decapitated lawn gnomes do not a potential boyfriend make. Yet,
somehow, Wes and Michael are hitting it off, which means Wes is Liz’s
in.
But as Liz and Wes scheme to get Liz noticed by Michael so she can have
her magical prom moment, she’s shocked to discover that she likes being
around Wes. And as they continue to grow closer, she must reexamine
everything she thought she knew about love—and rethink her own ideas of
what Happily Ever After should look like.

Die intriges van die stories in hierdie reeks is eenvoudig, maar uiters vermaaklik en die humoristiese illustrasies sal sorg dat kinders dol sal wees oor hierdie koddige, maar brawe klein speurder se avonture!

chewing on his face, his heart leaps for joy. For months he's dreamed
of returning to the Archipelago – the secret islands where all the
creatures of myth still live. But he did not know it would involve a
rescue mission on the back of a sphinx, or a plan to enter a dragon's
lair. Nor did he imagine it would involve a girl with a flock of birds
at her side, a new-hatched chick in her pocket and a ravenous hunger
for justice...
Telling Tales Out of School Chronicling the tales he had collected
throughout his career in education started as a lockdown pastime
for Chris Lowe. The end result is Telling Tales Out of School:
fifty tales to mark the fiftieth anniversary of Prince William
School, Oundle. The Tales are all based on true events or stories
told to Chris by fellow teachers: stories, about growing up, about
learning, teaching and coping together. All proceeds from sales of
the book will be donated to the James Rutterford Trust, which is
targeted at families who need financial support to enable their
children at PWS to take part in school activities, school trips, to
provide equipment to aid their study or to support out-of-hours
school activities. Please visit tellingtales.bigcartel.com for more
information about the project and to buy further copies of Telling
Tales Out of School.
