THE TIKTOK SENSATION THAT EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT 'After
finishing this book, my heart was pounding and I couldn't find
words big enough to describe how brilliant, beautiful, and powerful
it is.' L.E. Flynn, author of All Eyes On Her All Eden wants is to
rewind the clock. To live that day again. She would do everything
differently. Not laugh at his jokes or ignore the way he was
looking at her that night. And she would definitely lock her
bedroom door. But Eden can't turn back time. So she buries the
truth, along with the girl she used to be. She pretends she doesn't
need friends, doesn't need love, doesn't need justice. But as her
world unravels, one thing becomes clear: the only person who can
save Eden ... is Eden.
A cat's-eye view of history! Discover secrets, stories and facts
about history’s most fascinating felines! Young historians may
never look at the past - or cats! - in quite the same way again.
Cats have prowled Earth for millennia, yet the history of the world
has always been told through the eyes of humans. But now it's time
to - finally! - set the record straight and uncover the key role
that cats have played in shaping the course of history. Did you
know that ancient Egyptians loved cats so much that they had
special laws to protect them? Or that Isaac Newton's cat helped him
develop the theory of gravity? How about that Féliette, a French
street cat, was the first cat to go into space in 1963? A History
of the World (According to Cats!) introduces us to fur-raising
facts and adventures from around the world and across the
centuries. Discover unknown stories about real-life felines,
including WWII heroes, courageous adventurers and even an astrocat
that travelled in space (and made it back to Earth to tell the
tale), this book places cats as the heroes of their own stories.
Full of real-life stories, with all the boring stuff left out, this
book takes a look at the world's history through feline eyes.
You're thirteen. All you want is a normal life. But most normal kids don't need heart transplants.

Shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal, this is a powerful, thought-provoking story from the award-winning Malorie Blackman.

Adnan is the heartwarming story of a refugee boy’s attempts to
heal his mother’s mental health issues with the power of his
creativity as they rebuild their lives in their new home.
Sometimes, when something sad happens, people can push it so far
down because it hurts too much. That’s why Mummy doesn’t
remember. This touching and sensitively told children's book is a
story about a boy and his mother, about trauma and recovery, and
how to deal with the challenges of mental health. It tells
the story of an imaginative ten year old Syrian refugee boy
who has had to flee his home country with his mother. Now settled
in the UK, he must use all his creativity to break through his
mother’s PTSD or risk losing her forever. The book is based on a
short film of the same name, which has collected multiple awards
and made Official Selection at its first Oscar-qualifier. Inspired
by her own experiences as a refugee, Syrian artist Diala Brisly’s
illustrations are powerful and evocative, highlighting the contrast
between Adnan’s hope and the helplessness of the mother. The
charity Choose Love will receive 2% of the book’s recommended
retail price on every copy sold. Choose Love (formerly Help
Refugees) go where the need is greatest. They fill the gaps and act
where others won’t. Sometimes that means search and rescue boats.
Sometimes it means providing food or safe, secure long-term housing
for refugees. Since 2015, they’ve supported over 120 incredible
projects and reached over one million people.
