A child-centred fantasy adventure about friendship across very different ways of life, with a final episode that invites readers to decide what really happened.
Alex Bell, illustrated by Tim McDonagh
Expect a fast-moving fantasy adventure built around a race, inventive magical creatures and a quest to help family. Its emotional centre is a quiet child learning to recognise his own capabilities.
Kate Wakeling
Expect a lively, imaginative poetry collection that makes ordinary things feel newly strange. It mixes quiet and comic poems, with invitations to notice clouds, water, dust and trees.
Peter Bunzl
This is a quest fantasy about siblings facing separation, magical danger and inherited family trouble. Its appeal lies in Fairyland, nature-linked magic, riddles, storytelling and a movement from grief and hardship towards courage and hope.
