Perfect for fans of the current Netflix epic Outlaw King, starring Chris Pine as Robert the Bruce Inspiring, suspenseful and educational; brings to life the fascinating story of one of Scotland's little known heroines Written by acclaimed authors, Jane Yolen and Robert J Harris, this is historical YA at its best for Scottish teenagers Part of the Stuart Quartet series published by Penguin in USA Launch event June 2019

Long ago unicorns lived in a haven of sun-dappled glades and flower-filled dells. But as civilization spread over the ages -- with its fierce knights, its chugging trains, its thick smogs -- unicorns had to find a new sanctuary. But where?
Jane Yolen finds a magical answer in the traditional unicorn myth. Her rhythmic, rhymed text is irresistible to read aloud. And Ruth Sanderson's brilliant artwork gives unicorns a bold reality in everything from ancient cave paintings to their secret, present-day home. After reading this tribute to the mystical, mysterious unicorn, children will enjoy looking for these elusive creatures in the world around them.

What were all those fairy-tale characters thinking? Jane Yolen and Rebecca Kai Dotlich answer this question in paired poems, with sometimes startling results. The Princess claims all those mattresses kept her awake, not a silly pea, while the poor pea complains that the princess snores. One Snow White begs the witch to settle by the bay and throw that mirror away. Another boldly tells the mirror she "won't be guided by a glass that's so one-sided." Grumbles from the Forest is a bewitching brew of voices, grumbling, pleading, bragging, reminiscing, confiding, that bubbles with magic and wonder. The spectacular paintings that tie the poems together are full of surprise and intrigue. This stunning collection includes end notes that briefly describe the tales and their history and an introduction that invites readers to imagine their own poems from unusual perspectives.

The popular HOW DO DINOSAURS… series continues with a hilarious look at dinosaurs at dinner time!

When dinosaurs eat their food, what do they do?
This book runs through the gamut of mealtime bad behaviour, satisfyingly concluding with impeccably behaved dinosaur dinner guests:

'Eat up. Eat up, little dinosaur.'

A sure-fire winner with parents of young children – it will be an invaluable help with meal time manners.

In this collection of poems, noted children's poet Jane Yolen takes readers on an expedition underground, exploring everything from animal burrows and human creations, like subways, near the surface, to ancient cities and fossils, lower down, to caves, magma, and Earth's tectonic plates, deeper still below our feet. At the same time, in Jose Masse's rich art, a girl and boy, accompanied by several animals, go on a fantastic underground journey. This book contains science, poetry, and an adventure story all rolled into one. But it's also more than that: In these poems we see that beneath us are the past, present, future, history, truth, and story. This thought-provoking collection will evoke a sense of wonder and awe in readers, as they discover the mysterious world underneath us.
