Wigglesbottom Primary series
The Sports Day Chicken
Written
by Pamela Butchart • Illustrated by Becka Moor
Three perfectly pitched school stories, hilariously told by Pamela Butchart and beautifully illustrated by Becka Moor.
Year 2 at Wigglesbottom Primary is never boring. Even so, they don’t expect to run a race against a chicken at Sports Day, or eat green toxic slime at lunch (it’s Halloween custard!) or that Anne Marie Moor is an ant queen and one of her subjects is called Lady Gaga. BUT THEY LOVE EVERY MINUTE OF IT!
Laugh-out-loud hilarity with enticing two-colour illustrations, perfect for encouraging independent reading.
Deadlock
Written by Simon Fox
Perfect for fans of Alex Rider and Young Bond, Simon Fox’s latest action-packed thriller is ideal for readers too young for Jack Reacher or Line of Duty.
Archie Blake thought his policeman father teaching him how to pick locks and open safes was just a bit of fun. But when a diamond necklace is stolen and his dad is arrested, Archie realises the only way to prove his dad’s innocence is to go on the run and use everything he’s learned to uncover the truth.
An explosive new adventure from the author of the unputdownable Running Out of Time. Simon Fox is a rising star in a new generation of thriller writers.
