A teenage girl stumbles out of an alley in Ottawa, concussed, with
no memory of her life. Fleeing sword-wielding operatives with
inexplicable mental abilities, she soon learns that her name is
Zoe, and that she not only possesses the same abilities, but is
extraordinarily skilled in martial arts. As she scours Toronto for
clues about her identity, she finds others like her, and is given
refuge at the Academy, an international school for Telepaths. As
fragments of her childhood return, she begins to suspect that she
may not like who she once was-that she may be part of a shadowy
organization more powerful than anyone suspects, and that she will
soon be swept up in events that are thousands of years in the
making.
The gang from Woodsword Middle School have re-entered the world of Minecraft, and this time they’re taking the plunge to discover the secrets of the ocean biome.

For fans of the Minecraft game, Jumanji and Wreck it Ralph.
Big Brother is watching you . . . Under the all-seeing eye of Big
Brother, Winston Smith spends his days in the Ministry of Truth,

question the regime. A note from a colleague - 'I love you' - marks
the beginning of a secret affair that breaks all the rules. But
what will happen when they are found out? This classic dystopian
novel is a vision of life under a totalitarian regime, where every
thought or action could bring the Thought Police to the door . . .

have been conquered decades ago and even their own families seem
happier. But when they return, no one believes them. So, with a
global war looming in their own world, their quest for proof of the
Sideways World becomes ever-more urgent, in a nail-biting race
against time. And Willa and Manny will have to make an impossible
decision: because once you find a perfect world, can you ever leave
it behind . . .?
