Imagine being able to hear for the first time, or see in
full-colour, or take your first steps on Earth. This incredible
book celebrates the remarkable achievements made in medical
engineering, and offers a glimpse of what the future might hold for
humanity. Pioneering technological breakthroughs have truly changed
lives. For some people, particularly those with disabilities,
recent advances have crossed the realms of the purely imaginable,
and reached a place of possibility. People with paraplegia can walk
again, those who are hearing impaired can listen to even the
faintest sounds, and some people with missing limbs can create
beautiful works of art. This phenomenal book is a celebration of
all that has been achieved so far, and a look at what might be
possible in the near future. Is it inevitable that technology will
surpass biology? From cochlear implants and pacemakers, to bionic
arms and legs, this empowering book also features spotlights on
pioneers including Paralympians Richard Whitehead and Blake Leeper,
and the world's first 'cyborg' Neil Harbisson.
Teenage life doesn't come with a rule book, so here is the next
best thing. Let's face it: growing up is confusing. You're expected
to get good grades at school, maintain an insta-worthy social life
and somehow also hone a range of life skills which you definitely
don't want to ask your parents about... This book is here to act as
your go-to guide on everything from social media to sexting and
from body image to self-esteem. Acting as your personal
cheerleader, this book will teach you everything you need to
navigate your teens with sass and style. Remember, there is nothing
more awesome than being you.

By the author of Once Upon a Unicorn Horn, shortlisted for the 2020
Waterstones Children's Book Prize. The second title in a new series
about how magical creatures came to have their gifts. Do you know
how dragons got their fire? It all began once upon a magic kingdom,
when a fearsome, terrifying dragon stalked the land. He was so mean
he ate kittens for breakfast, he was so scary he made children
scream, and he was so evil that he blew huge storms out of his
jaws, which is why it was always so cold. Or so the stories said.
When two children called Freya and Sylas met the dragon, they found
something very different indeed...
