Filled with humor, friendship, and middle school antics, the Confidentially Yours series-about a group of kids who run their school newspaper's advice column-continues on in its fifth installment. Perfect for fans of the Cupcake Diaries or Candy Apple books. Brooke Jacobs never considered herself to be the superstitious type. But after she and her friends visit a psychic who tells Brooke she's in for some bad luck, the panic sets in. And when Brooke hurts her arm, gets into a major fight with her boyfriend, and turns into a total klutz in soccer, she's convinced her misfortune is here to stay. To make matters worse, the Lincoln Log-the newspaper where she and her best friends write their advice column-is competing in an important contest. Brooke, Vanessa, Heather, Tim, and the rest of the team need to put together their best issue yet. There's no time for bad luck ...but that's all Brooke seems to have. Not wanting to let everyone down, Brooke must decide, once and for all, who's in charge of her life: a silly superstition or herself. And she better find out fast, because bad luck or not, the contest must go on.

The history-making, ground-breaking speeches of Greta Thunberg, the young activist who has become the voice of a generation

'Everything needs to change. And it has to start today'

In August 2018 a fifteen-year-old Swedish girl, Greta Thunberg, decided not to go to school one day. Her actions ended up sparking a global movement for action against the climate crisis, inspiring millions of pupils to go on strike for our planet, forcing governments to listen, and earning her a Nobel Peace Prize nomination.

This book brings you Greta in her own words, for the first time. Collecting her speeches that have made history across Europe, from the UN to mass street protests, No One Is Too Small to Make A Difference is a rallying cry for why we must all wake up and fight to protect the living planet, no matter how powerless we feel. Our future depends upon it.

The Lightning Thief: the first book in Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson series.

Look, I didn't want to be a half-blood. I never asked to be the son of a Greek god. I was just a normal kid, going to school, playing basketball, skateboarding. The usual. Until I accidentally vaporized my maths teacher. That's when things started really going wrong. Now I spend my time fighting with swords, battling monsters with my friends and generally trying to stay alive.

This is the one where Zeus, God of the Sky, thinks I've stolen his lightning bolt - and making Zeus angry is a very bad idea . . .

The third book in the bestselling spin off series from Percy Jackson and the Olympians - now a major Disney+ series!

ONE FATAL PROPHECY. SEVEN BRAVE DEMIGODS. A QUEST TO FIND - AND CLOSE - THE DOORS OF DEATH.


Annabeth felt as if someone had draped a cold washcloth across her neck. She heard that whispering laughter again, as if the presence had followed her from the ship.

She looked up at the Argo II. Its massive bronze hull glittered in the sunlight. Part of her wanted to kidnap Percy right now, get on board and get out of here while they still could.

She couldn't shake the feeling that something was about to go terribly wrong. She couldn't risk losing Percy again.
