Josh is such a worrier. He worries about everything. Water slides.
School. Global warming. Sleepovers. But he knows something is
really wrong when his mum and dad begin to act strangely... His
family is moving to Brighton and he must start a new school with
new teachers, new pupils and new everything! He used to have his
own Worrybot - a home-made cardboard robot which was supposed to
eat up his worst fears if he wrote them down on bits of paper and
posted them into its mouth. It did help a bit ... but now Josh is
terrified that his anxiety will return when he starts at his new
school. And he is more than a bit surprised to discover that
there's a robot in his new class - a real-life learning robot which
sits on the desk next to his and allows classmate Charlie to join
lessons remotely. Soon Charlie becomes Josh's best - perhaps his
only - friend. Will Charlie's friendship help Josh overcome his
fears, or will it just give nasty Noah more reasons to make fun of
him? And why won't Charlie come to school anyway? A suspenseful
story of emotional high stakes that will appeal to fans of Lisa
Thompson, Ross Welford and Elle McNicoll.
Jess returns from a nightmare day at school to find her dad's been
suspended from work and gone into hiding. To escape the slobbering
newshounds all eager for the full story, Mum drags Jess and her
sister off to a remote Scottish island. Modern technology's
forbidden, and there's only a bunch of teenage uber geeks for
company. Without Facebook or even her mobile, Jess feels totally
disconnected- from everybody back home. But why are they there
anyway? What are they really running away from?
