Texting and social media are great - until someone falls victim to
cyber-bullying. How will Jasmine deal with it? This book is part of
the Streetwise series, ideal for developing both reading skills and
an awareness of personal, social and health education topics. As
with all books in the series, the short story is followed by
questions, discussion points and activity suggestions, which can be
used as a springboard for further work. .
Secrets. Lies. Promises. Sometimes keeping things inside is
dangerous. Callie, Ted, Zara, and Nico are best friends. More than
friends - they're like family to each other. But since being
embarrassed at school in a practical joke gone wrong, Ted has
stopped talking to the rest of the gang. And when Callie, Zara and
Nico discover that someone has been living in their school, and
sleeping in the building at night, they decide to investigate -
without Ted. A wise, heartwarming story of friendship and family,
from the highly-acclaimed author of Ella on the Outside, Not My
Fault, and How to be Me.
Innocent by day, killer by night: a dark, twisting thriller about a
teen assassin's attempt to live a normal life. 'An electrifying
debut!' Chelsea Pitcher, author of This Lie Will Kill You Trained
and traumatised by a secret assassin programme for minors, Isabel
Ryans wants nothing more than to be a normal civilian. After
running away from home, she has a new name, a new life and a new
friend, Emma, and for the first time, things are looking up. But
old habits die hard, and it's not long until she blows her cover,
drawing the attention of the guilds - the two rival organisations
who control the city of Espera. An unaffiliated killer like Isabel
is either a potential asset . . . or a threat to be eliminated.

"Fiercely brilliant from beginning to end." Beth Reekles, author of

piece. Then her friend is murdered and every Muslim is to blame.

family is ripped apart? It's time for Hanan to stop being the
quiet, good girl. It's time for her to stand up and shout.
