David Lubar
Expect a character-led coming-of-age story rather than an action thriller: Cliff’s friendships, creative ambitions, family pressures and attraction to Jillian unfold through witty, self-aware narration.
Suzanne Chiew
This is a gentle woodland story about preparing for a storm, helping neighbours and recovering after Badger’s home is damaged. Detailed illustrations and a hopeful rebuilding sequence support shared reading and discussion.
Malcolm Duffy
This is a fast, emotionally charged story about risk-taking and its aftermath. Rory’s experience opens space to think about peer pressure, friendship, blame, accountability and whether people can rebuild trust after serious harm.
John Green
A witty, emotionally serious story about teenagers confronting illness, love and mortality. It combines an accessible prose style with grief, brief sex, some swearing, drinking and reflections on literature, fate and what makes a life matter.
Roald Dahl
Expect a brisk moral fantasy rather than a cosy animal adventure. The story turns outrage about hunting into comic, threatening reversal, asking readers to feel the consequences from the animals’ perspective.
Derek Landy
This is a brisk supernatural adventure with a vulnerable protagonist, dangerous family revelations and a shifting group of companions. Its strongest feature is the contrast between witty dialogue and genuinely unsettling horror, though the story includes notably dark and graphic moments.
