Howl with laughter with the FIFTH book in the hilarious
full-colour, illustrated series, Dog Man, from the creator of
Captain Underpants! When a new bunch of baddies bust up the town,
Dog Man is called into action -- and this time he isn't alone. With
a cute kitten and a remarkable robot by his side, our heroes must
save the day by joining forces with an unlikely ally: Petey, the
World's Most Evil Cat. But can the villainous Petey avoid vengeance
and venture into virtue? Dav Pilkey's wildly popular Dog Man series
appeals to readers of all ages and explores universally positive
themes, including: empathy, kindness, persistence, and the
importance of being true to one's self. Full colour pages
throughout.

Fiona is invisible, and her dad - an infamous crime lord - will
stop at nothing to control her power. High school is hard when
you're invisible. Fiona McClean hates her family, has had to move
to a new school and seems to be completely invisible to the boy she
likes. So far so normal, right? But Fiona really is invisible. She
doesn't even know what colour her own hair is. Born into a world
where Cold War anti-radiation pills have caused genetic mutations,
Fiona is forced to work for her mind-controlling mobster father as
the world's most effective thief. When her father announces she
must become a murdering assassin, Fiona and her telekinetic mother
make a break for freedom. Running to a small Arizonian town, Fiona
finds that playing at 'normal life' with a mother on the edge, a
brother she can't trust, and a boy who drives her crazy is as
impossible as escaping her father.

Zetian, the only female emperor in Chinese history. 'This is the
historical-inspired, futuristic sci-fi mash-up of my wildest
dreams.' Chloe Gong 'Raging against the patriarchy in spectacular
style.' Observer, best books of the year 'Think The Handmaid's Tale
meets Pacific Rim and buckle up.' Shelley Parker-Chan 'Like its

rage.' Julie C. Dao I have no faith in love. Love cannot save me. I
choose vengeance. The boys of Huaxia dream of pairing up with girls
to pilot Chrysalises - giant transforming robots that battle aliens
beyond the Great Wall. It doesn't matter that their female
co-pilots are expected to serve as concubines and often die from
the mental strain. When 18-year-old Zetian offers herself up as a
concubine-pilot, her plan is to assassinate the ace male pilot
responsible for her sister's death. But after miraculously
surviving her first battle, Zetian sets her sights on a mightier
goal. The time has come to stop more girls from being sacrificed.
