'Beautifully written . . . I raced through it' HILARY MANTEL 1759, Ipswich. Sisters Peggy and Molly Gainsborough are the best of friends and do everything together. They spy on their father as he paints, they rankle their mother as she manages the books, they tear barefoot through the muddy fields that surround their home. But there is another reason they are inseparable: from a young age, Molly has had a tendency to forget who she is, to fall into mental confusion, and Peggy knows instinctively that no one must find out. When the family move to Bath, the sisters are thrown into the whirl of polite society, where the merits of marriage and codes of behaviour are crystal clear, and secrets much harder to keep. As Peggy goes to greater lengths to protect her sister from the threat of an asylum, she finds herself falling in love, and their precarious situation is soon thrown catastrophically off course. The discovery of a betrayal forces Peggy to question all she has done for Molly - and whether any one person can truly change the fate of another.

The comic companion to the BBC sitcom GHOSTS, perfect for all the family. Everybody leaves a trace. The ghosts of Button House may have been dead a long time - some of them a very long time - but they have all left their mark on the world (even if, in Robin’s case, that mark is just a handprint on the wall of a cave). Gathered together in this volume is a treasure trove of unearthed cuttings, original records and rare artefacts that explore the unseen lives of those who died at Button House: from Thomas's love letters to Pat's ‘Summer Camp Rap’, and from Julian's campaign promises to Lady Button's Rules of Etiquette. There are even documents dictated to the one person who can see and hear the ghosts: Alison Cooper. Written by the show’s creators – Mathew Baynton, Simon Farnaby, Martha Howe-Douglas, Jim Howick, Laurence Rickard and Ben Willbond – this eclectic archive is a unique chance to discover more about the beloved ghosts of Button House. Thank be to Moonah! A book for all the family, it is as warm-spirited and deliriously daft as the series itself.

Source to Summit is a brand new KS3 course, comprising student books and digital Kerboodle resources, that have been cohesively planned to ensure full compliance with the new Religious Education Directory (RED). Series editor, Andy Lewis, and a writing team of practicing teachers have drawn on their expertise and classroom experience to present the new curriculum in a way that students will be able to understand and remember. Mirroring the structure of the RED, there is a strong narrative telling the Christian story from Creation to the Church today. Lessons are carefully sequenced, and content presented in accessible and vividly designed spreads. There are opportunities for students to engage with scripture, and a wide range of case studies and examples help bring alive the Catholic faith. Activities on each spread explicitly allow students to develop skills to understand, discern and personally respond to the material they encounter. Through a range of tasks with accompanying guidance, students will be able to demonstrate their progress over time in a structured way. This course seeks to be authentic to the Catholic faith, rigorous and engaging, allowing students of all faiths and backgrounds to be fully immersed in the curriculum in an inclusive way.
