The first four Five Nights at Freddy's: Fazbear Frights short story
collections all in one box set! These four short story collections
- straight from the mind of Five Night's at Freddy's creator Scott
Cawthon - are full of original, spine-tingling tales sure to have
even the bravest readers shivering with fear. Into the Pit: Oswald
wishes his summer wasn't so boring, Sarah wishes to be beautiful,
and Millie wishes she could just disappear from the face of the
earth. But in the twisted world of Five Nights at Freddy's, their
hearts' deepest desires have an unexpected cost. Fetch: Greg
decides to put the controversial science he's been studying to the
test. Alec launches a master plot to expose his golden sister for
the spoiled brat he knows she is. And Oscar, ever the miniature
grown-up his mom needs him to be, decides to take something he
wants ... even though he knows it's wrong. But as these three will
learn, control is a fragile thing in the sinister world of Five
Nights at Freddy's. 1:35AM: Delilah escapes deeper into her dreams
each night, in desperate need of a wake-up call. Stanley is newly
dumped, stuck in a dead-end job for a mysterious employer, and
unable to connect with anyone. And Devon, abandoned by his dad and
ignored by his mom, can't understand why love and friendship come
so easily to everyone except him. Unfortunately, in the callous
world of Five Nights at Freddy's, it's always in the depths of
loneliness that evil creeps in. Step Closer: Isolation can open up
a void. Pete lashes out at his younger brother in the wake of his
parents' divorce, falling prey to a gruesome curse. Kasey struggles
with the lengths she'll go to survive on the streets after stealing
a pair of unusual novelty glasses. Samantha and her sister, Susie,
struggle to exist side by side, desperate to connect after a
horrific tragedy. But in the grim world of Five Nights at Freddy's,
empty feelings often attract hungry monsters...
The Fazbear Frights series continues with three more bone-chilling,
novella-length tales to keep even the bravest Five Nights at
Freddy's player up at night... After years of being kicked around,
Greg, Alec and Oscar are ready to take control of their lives. Greg
decides to put the controversial science he's been studying to the
test. Alec launches a master plot to expose his golden sister for
the spoiled brat he knows she is. And Oscar, ever the miniature
grown-up his mom needs him to be, decides to take something he
wants ... even though he knows it's wrong. But as these three will
learn, control is a fragile thing in the sinister world of Five
Nights at Freddy's. In this second volume, horror master Scott
Cawthon spins three sinister novella-length stories from different
corners of his series' canon. Each story comes complete with
accompanying artwork from fan-favourite game artist LadyFiszi, who
brings the horror to life in startling new ways. Readers beware:
this collection of terrifying tales is enough to unsettle even the
most hardened Five Nights at Freddy's fans.
There is greater pressure for schools to meet certain levels of pupil achievement now more than ever before. Teachers and policy makers are looking for ways to ensure pupils are not underachieving, and to do this must have some understanding of the causes of underachievement. This timely book examines different levels of achievement of pupil groups and the reasons behind them. The authors highlight ways in which schools and policy makers might improve achievement through changes in policy and practice. Some of the topics considered are: * What is underachievement? * Social background and achievement * School structures and achievement * Schools raising attainment Underachievement in Schools will be a valuable resource for anyone involved with school policy as well as teachers and those training to teach.
Published in 1994, Mother's Intuition? examines the process of
choosing secondary schools in two inner London boroughs. The
research is based upon detailed interviews with parents as well as
questionnaires filled in by pupils themselves. The authors address
several important dimensions in the choosing process which had not
been investigated by previous research. The book particularly
focusses on the main question arising from the interviews; who does
the choosing - mother, father or the child? Other areas discussed
are the changing nature of families and the role different members
in lone parent families play, as well as the different decisions
made between families with girls and boys, and those from different
racial and ethnic groups.
Drawing an unfavourable contrast between the position of students
and graduates with that of their baby boomer parents has become a
staple for media comment. Indeed, student indebtedness and
difficulties in finding graduate jobs and housing typically
contrasts markedly with their parents' experiences. Broadening the
investigation, 'Helicopter Parenting' and 'Boomerang Children'
depicts how students and graduates are now likely to be close to
their parents, receive considerable financial and emotional support
from them and, upon graduation, return home. Using qualitative data
from two interview studies of middle-class families, this title
explores the impact of these changes on young people's transition
to independence and adulthood and on intergenerational and
intragenerational equality. This enlightening monograph will appeal
to undergraduate and postgraduate students interested in fields
such as Social Policy, Family Sociology and Education.

Published in 1983. One response to the recent concern about pupil
discipline in schools has been the creation of support centres:
off-site special units to which disruptive pupils are sent for
varying periods of time for education and supervision. The Inner
London Education Authority had a substantial network of such
centres. Yet the concept of these units has aroused some criticism:
they have been labelled as 'sin-bins' and as dumping grounds for
adolescents. This book is based on major research conducted by the
ILEA over a number of years and provides the only substantial
evaluation of support centres. Data are presented on pupil
characteristics and attainment, on how the centres operate and on
the views of the staff in centres and in referring schools. It
concludes with an evaluation of support centres, highlighting a
range of innovative approaches to the management of disruptive
behaviour. The authors warn of the dangers of developing a separate
system for disruptive pupils, but conclude that some form of
alternative provision is needed for the foreseeable future.

The second pulse-pounding original story based on the hit video
game HELLO NEIGHBOR. Unwind the mystery at the heart of the game!
It's been four months since Nicky Roth has seen his best friend and
neighbour, Aaron Peterson. Aaron's father, a reclusive theme park
designer, told the town that Aaron and his sister Mya are living
with a relative far away, but Nicky can't seem to accept it.
Plagued by terrifying nightmares of robotic mannequins, rotting
theme parks, and a dark basement, Nicky teams up with his friends
from school to find out what really happened to Aaron and Mya.
Together, they start piecing together a picture more disturbing
than they could have imagined. The screams coming from the
neighbor's house can't be nothing, and Nicky is determined to get
to the bottom of where his friends went, and what-if anything-can
be done to save them. Includes black-and-white illustrations
throughout.
