Melissa Albert
A dark, atmospheric fantasy for readers who enjoy folklore, mystery and psychological unease. Alice’s search for her mother carries questions about trust, belonging and who has the right to shape a story.
Jacqueline Wilson
This is a grief story with a supernatural or possibly imagined presence at its centre. Jade’s friendship with Vicky is loving but unequal, and recovery involves recognising control, facing guilt and accepting help.
Roberto Piumini
Expect a quiet, imaginative story in which painted scenes become a route into experiences Madurer cannot have outside. Its emotional centre is the growing creative partnership between a confined child and the artist who works for him.
Helen Cresswell
This is a thoughtful, wistful fantasy about a child resisting change. Its strongest appeal may be the combination of village detail, imaginative uncertainty and emotional honesty, while its pace and melancholy mood may suit readers who enjoy reflective stories.
Paul Fleischman, illustrated by Kevin Hawkes
This is an imaginative story about making a world that reflects one person’s ideas. Its main appeal is the inventive detail: Wesley turns a plant into resources, culture and communication, then sees others respond.
