The Dream Watcher
The Catcher in the Rye meets Harold and Maude in this timeless tale of teenage angst. Albert Scully is the quintessential miserable teenager.

The Big Bad Wolf and Me
In this wholly original, completely irresistible picture book, a little boy comes across the Big Bad Wolf on his way home from school. Far from being the fearful villain in storybooks, this wolf is all washed up and has forgotten how to be scary. The boy takes it as his personal challenge to help the wolf regain his confidence so he can growl and roar with his old flair. He renames the wolf Zorro, lets him sleep in his closet, puts him on a strict diet of chocolate chip cookies and canned salmon-flavoured cat food and reminds him how to roar and make really scary faces in the mirror. The result is not only a completely rehabilitated Big Bad Wolf, but also a wonderful friendship that no reader will forget. The story is told in twelve very brief chapters, each one a series of pen-and-ink comic-book-style vignettes; simple, whimsical and incredibly expressive.

The story of a mysterious jewel thief and a sad sailor with a heart of gold. A story of friendship and adventure on the high seas. This is the story of Sally Jones.

This brilliant debut novel proves exactly why Matias Nespolo has been selected by Granta as one of the best young novelists currently working in the Spanish language. In a story as fast-paced and immediate as a film, written in the slangy street-talk of Buenos Aires, Nespolo tracks the violent coming-of-age of Gringo, an orphaned boy who isn't yet twenty but is having to survive in an adult world of crime, prostitution and drug dealing. Set during the lead-up to the 2001 financial crash in Argentina, when tensions are running high and the streets are full of protestors, Seven Ways to Kill a Cat shows the limited escape routes open to someone like Gringo, whom we first meet barbecuing a cat w...
Shh! We Have a Plan
From the creator of Little Owl Lost and Oh No, George! comes a funny, strikingly illustrated story of best-laid plans — and the secret to attracting the birdie. Four friends creep through the woods, and what do they spot? An exquisite bird high in a tree! “Hello birdie,” waves one. “Shh! We have a plan,” hush the others. They stealthily make their advance, nets in the air. Ready one, ready two, ready three, and go! But as one comically foiled plan follows another, it soon becomes clear that their quiet, observant companion, hand outstretched, has a far better idea. Award-winning author-illustrator Chris Haughton is back with another simple, satisfying story whose visual humor plays out in boldly graphic, vibrantly colorful illustrations.
