Aquaman's underwater kingdom is facing a medical threat. Luckily, a
sea witch offers him a rare plant to fight the sickness . . . in
exchange for a hefty price. But the Sea King soon discovers she
isn't just greedy. The old woman has locked the true crop owner in
an enchanted coral tower! What's worse, the trapped mermaid thinks
she's being protected not imprisoned, so her living seaweed hair is
ready to fight off any stranger who climbs inside. Can the
Atlantean hero partner with the coral captive to end the witch's
fishy scheme? In this twisted retelling, DC Super Heroes and
Super-Villains collide with the Rapunzel fairy tale to create an
action-packed chapter book for kids!

Stunning illustrations by Chris Mould make this one of the most
exciting editions of The Iron Man to be published. The Iron Man
came to the top of the cliff. Where had he come from? Nobody knows.
How was he made? Nobody knows. Mankind must put a stop to the
dreadful destruction by the Iron Man and set a trap for him, but he
cannot be kept down. Then, when a terrible monster from outer space
threatens to lay waste to the planet, it is the Iron Man who finds
a way to save the world. 'Stunning.' WRD Magazine 'Whether you're
already a fan of this classic children's story or a new reader,
this wonderful new version is a real treat.' BookTrust 'Gripping .
. a classic.' Phillip Pullman 'A visionary tale.' Michael Morpurgo
'One of the greatest of modern fairy tales.' Observer
When puzzle-loving Kip Bramley receives a cryptic invitation,
delivered by a beetle-shaped drone that appears to be breathing, he
has no idea that his world is about to change forever. Very soon he
finds himself at Quicksmiths College of Strange Energy, hunting for
riddles set 400 years earlier by a mysterious genius. But this
isn't any ordinary treasure hunt: as the clock counts down, Kip
will need all the help he can get from his loyal new friends and
his faithful pet flying squirrel, Pinky. With danger mounting it
seems much more is at stake for Kip and his family than he could
ever have imagined.
