Patrick Ness
A lively choice for readers who enjoy school settings, eccentric threats and exaggerated comedy.
Janeen Hayat
A good choice for shared reading about family history, friendship and how the past shapes present relationships. Its historical strand offers substantial discussion, while the school setting gives children an immediate way into questions about belonging and courage.
Elle McNicoll
A warm but potentially emotionally charged story about a neurodivergent teenager responding to unfairness, protecting her sister and challenging a culture in which bullying can be enabled by silence.
John Schu
This offers a poetic, character-led account of a young person facing anorexia and other mental-health difficulties, with attention to treatment, relationships, bullying and the possibility of accepting help.
Farhana Islam
A lively school-camp adventure centres on friendship, frightening folklore and a difficult peer relationship.
Carrie Sellon
This is a comic adventure about resourcefulness, friendship and family loyalty, set against the pressure of possible eviction. Magical potions and their possible use in the pizza shop set up energetic slapstick, while the story gives serious subjects space without presenting humour as belittling them.
