The epic second book in the action-packed and empowering
middle-grade superhero series. Perfect for 8+ fans of Percy
Jackson, Amari and the Night Brothers and Black Panther. Soon to be
a feature film with a major streamer! Power bursts through my body,
and I gasp as my hair shoots out like an avenging sword. It slashes
a line through the wooden decking of the walkway. With a deafening
crack, the wood breaks apart, splintering with the force of the
impact. Having uncovered head teacher Dr Doyinbo's hidden agenda
behind the Academy of the Sun, Onyeka and her friends are on the
run. But they've got bigger problems to worry about - they
desperately need to find a way to restore Niyi's Ike superpower and
they need to locate Onyeka's missing parents. When their last safe
house is uncovered, Onyeka turns to the only potential allies they
have left; the Rogues, a group of rebels that have been trying to
expose Dr Doyinbo's lies for years. Joining forces, will the two
groups be able to defeat their shared nemesis, or is there a new
danger on the horizon for the Solari? Praise for Onyeka and the
Academy of the Sun: 'Exhilarating and original, Onyeka is the

Jim Kay's dazzling depiction of J.K. Rowling's wizarding world has won legions of fans since the first Illustrated Edition of the Harry Potter novels was published in hardback in 2015, becoming a bestseller around the world. This irresistible smaller-format paperback edition of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban perfectly pairs J.K. Rowling's storytelling genius with Jim Kay's illustration wizardry, bringing the magic of Harry Potter to new readers with full-colour pictures and a handsome poster pull-out at the back of the book. This edition has been beautifully redesigned with selected illustration highlights, and is packed with breathtaking scenes and unforgettable characters - including Sirius Black, Remus Lupin and Professor Trelawney. The fully illustrated edition is still available in hardback.
Fizzing with magic and brimming with humour, this inspired reimagining will captivate wizards and Muggles alike, as Harry, now in his third year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, faces Dementors, death omens and - of course - danger.
Libby was born with a heart three sizes too big. She takes daily
shots, can't do monkey bars, and doesn't always read social cues.
But having Turner Syndrome doesn't mean she can't be a scientist
when she grows up. Besides her big sister Nonny, Libby's hero is
astronomer Cecilia Payne, who discovered what stars are made of.
When Nonny comes home to stay and tells Libby that she and her
husband Thomas are having a baby, Libby knows what to do: She'll
make Cecilia Payne the subject of her entry into a contest, and
give all the first-place prize money - twenty-five thousand
dollars! - to Nonny's growing family. But it'll take more tenacity
than she's ever needed to help take care of the sister who has
always taken care of her, all while navigating school with a unique
set of challenges.

Anna Llenas's popular Colour Monster is back, and this time he's heading off to school! But what exactly is school? A spooky castle filled with terrifying animals? A place in the sky, amongst the rainbows and clouds?
From music lessons, to lunchtime, to making new friends, the Colour Monster's first day of school is filled with exciting new adventures.
A brand new, laugh-out-loud young fiction series from bestselling author Joanna Nadin. Perfect for fans of Horrid Henry and the Trouble with Daisy series.
According to head teacher Mrs Bottomley-Blunt, 4B is the WORST CLASS IN THE WORLD. She says school is not about footling or fiddle-faddling or FUN. It is about LEARNING and it is high time 4B tried harder to EXCEL at it.
But Stanley and Manjit didn't LITERALLY mean to make their whole class sick with homemade biscuits. And they definitely didn't LITERALLY mean for Manjit's dog Killer to eat their teacher's shoes or for Bruce Bingley's rat to escape. These things just happened even though they had a FOOLPROOF plan.
You see, 4B may be the WORST CLASS IN THE WORLD. But you wouldn't want to be anywhere else.
Highly illustrated and featuring two hilarious madcap adventures in one book, these books are just right for children ready for their first chapter books.
Billy Loves Birds tells the fact-filled story of a day in the life
of Billy, a budding young naturalist who is wild about birds of all
kinds! Billy encounters many different kinds of birds in his
adventures during his day at Forest School, and this book is filled
with facts about all the different species he comes across, and
some that he can only dream of seeing in the wild one day. He
studies a blue tits' nest with chicks about to fledge, spies a
kingfisher catching a worm, and shows his friend how to peck like a
woodpecker! Follow Billy as he shares his love of birds - discover
how to trumpet like a crane or laugh like a kookaburra and learn
what makes feathers fabulous or beaks extraordinary. With an
engaging and lively narrative from Jess French and fun, warm
illustrations from Duncan Beedie this book will help ignite a love
and appreciation for nature, right on our doorsteps. The Nature
Heroes series focuses on a group of friends who are passionate
about nature and the great outdoors. Each book features a different
child who has a favourite topic that they are fascinated by: Billy
Loves Birds, Bella Loves Bugs, Ava Loves Animals, and Pedro Loves
the Planet! Playful text and funny relatable illustrations make
this an accessible series, which provides an entertaining
introduction to the natural world.
