containing seventeen famous tales full of love, loss, greed, envy
and bravery. Beautifully written by Ann Turnbull and illustrated by
Sarah Young, this collection of seventeen Greek myths is truly
something to treasure. The timeless stories of Theseus and the
Minotaur, Persephone, King Midas, Ariadne, Orpheus and Eurydice,
and Echo and Narcissus are told with great freshness and there is a
good balance between the gentler myths and the ones packed with
battles and monsters. A wonderful collection and a wonderful
introduction to the fascinating world of Greek mythology, brought
to life by one of our finest writers and an exciting new
illustrator.
"In sixteen hundred and sixty-five there was hardly anyone left
alive." Spring 1665, London Sam was just a young boy when his
master took him out of the orphanage to be his servant. When he was
old enough, he was going to become his master's apprentice, a
shoemaker, able to make his own way in the world. But that was
before the plague arrived. Abandoned by Alice, his master's maid
and the closet thing that Sam's ever had to a mother, Sam finds
himself nailed into his workshop home with only his dying master
and pet dog Budge for company. The officials call it 'quarantine'.
But for Sam it's a death sentence. Can Sam escape? And even if he
does, will he be able to survive on London's ravaged streets?
A thrilling historical adventure based on documents from the
National Archives. Orphan Sam has survived the Great Plague, but
his chance at a new life goes up in smoke when a fire breaks out on
Pudding Lane. "In sixteen hundred and sixty-six, London burned like
rotten sticks." Left alone and homeless by the Great Plague, Sam
struggled to survive. He was lucky to get a job working for the
Giraud family. Though Andre, the son of his boss, doesn't make life
easy. And then a fire breaks out on Pudding Lane. Before anyone
fully realises what's happening, London's burning... and this fire
can't be put out. Now it's time for Sam to prove what he's really
worth. If he can get out alive... A thrilling historical adventure
produced in partnership with the National Archives. Sam's previous
adventure is The Great Plague: A Cross on the Door is also
available from Bloomsbury Education.

1605 is a time of danger and persecution for English Catholics.
Seventeen-year-old Mary Wilshaw and her older brother Rob both come
to work at Lyde Hall in the West Midlands - a house where Catholic
priests are often hidden from the authorities. Mary, employed by
the lady of the house as an embroiderer, falls in love with young
David Hawley, the lady's secretary. But nothing at Lyde Hall is
what it seems. Who is David? And what dangerous secrets is Rob
hiding? Soon Mary herself is in danger as she tries to protect
those she loves.
Jon should never have skipped school with his friend Ryan - never
have taken that boat. Now Ryan is in danger - and only Jon can save
him. But Jon is scared. The police are knocking on his door. They
know he's lying. Is it too late to tell the truth?
