Sticky notes spread around the school, carrying both friendly and cutting messages.
French, Simon
Kieran wants to fit in at school, but his cousin Bon becomes a target for teasing. Kieran must choose between acceptance by the other children and standing up for Bon. The story also involves jealousy, family secrets and unexpected kindness; how these strands develop or end is unclear.
Earl Sewell
This is a family drama about belonging, resentment and difficult choices. Keysha’s move to her previously unknown father’s household and her involvement with a rough crowd place her past and present circumstances in tension.
Barry Jonsberg
This is a character-led story about a teenager’s self-image and changing relationships, set alongside Cassie’s disability and her family’s circumstances. Its several viewpoints invite readers to consider how people’s inner lives may differ from what others can see.
R.J. Palacio
A school story about August’s first experience of mainstream education, Wonder explores friendship, prejudice, family relationships and self-acceptance. Its difficult incidents are set alongside reconciliation, supportive adults and acts of kindness.
Sally Christie
A school mystery gives Alex and David a route into an uneasy friendship. The story looks closely at how fear, peer pressure and self-protection shape choices, while using the Icarus idea to frame risk, hope and possible escape.
Michael Rosen, illustrated by Tony Ross
This offers a contemporary child’s perspective on poverty and family difficulty, deliberately read beside Oliver Twist. Its strongest feature is the connection between classroom literature and problems affecting Shona’s life.
