A little girl learns to be proud of her family and the meaning of a true friend. A fourth grader decides his bully is a person who needs a friend just like him. A musically-talented high school student discovers that when he sticks up for himself, no one can hurt him. A teenager, with help from a teacher, becomes a confident student who embraces his differences.

Best Medicine
Things aren't going well for Philip Wright. It's not just the detentions or the girl problems that are getting him down. Or the fact that he weighs about the same as a medium-sized dog even though he's practically a teenager. Now his best friend is acting super weird, his mum has stopped laughing at his jokes, and his English teacher thinks Philip is... a poet. When Mum gives him some seriously bad news, Philip looks to his comedy hero, Harry Hill, for an answer. But what if it's impossible to joke his way out of this? The Best Medicine is an unforgettable reminder that laughter is the ultimate remedy.
Why Do Monsters Come Out at Night?

As she mourned the death of her mother she began to face the pain of her own childhood. Inspired by people such as Jane Elliott, author of the bestselling The Little Prisoner, Christine decided to write about her own experiences in the hope that, whatever happens in the future, she will leave no questions unanswered for her son Jack.Christine beautifully juxtaposes her life now as a mother, journalist and wife bringing her son up in a loving family environment, with her own upbringing and the mental and physical abuses she suffered at the hands of her father. This is Christine's pledge to ensure that history does not repeat itself. It is more than a story of survival, it is a story of contrasts, which reflect the rollercoaster of emotions that families put you through.
