CHILDREN'S HOMEPAGE

This month we are going princess crazy, as we unveil the super-exciting last instalment of Meg Cabot’s No 1 best-selling series The Princess Diaries! Ten out of Ten is Mia’s last diary, and we can’t wait to find out who she ends up with. Will it be J.P or Michael . . . or will she meet someone else at the last minute?!

For mystery, mayhem and monsters jump aboard as we sail into a land of Flying Pigs and blood-thirsty Buffalogres in Beware the Buffalogre!, the first swash-buckling pirate book from Rob Steven’s new fantasy series The Mapmaker’s Monsters…YO HO HO me hearties! Make sure you laugh as you welcome in the new year, with our fantastically wacky book The Big Fat Cow that Goes KAPOW!, a collection of irreverent rhyming poems and short stories by Andy Griffiths and Terry Denton. While The Jumble Book is a lovely collection of short poems by such authors as Michael Rosen and Roger McGough. Published to support Dyslexia Action, this carefully produced book is a splendid jumble of a little bit of everything! Finally, for our horror fans we have Changeling the first spine-tingling episode of Steve Feasey’s new fantasy adventure series. Trey’s family are not all they seem, his father was a werewolf, and now he thinks his uncle is a vampire… Full of heart-in-the-mouth moments, this chilling read is not for the faint-hearted!
