Title: THUNDERSTRUCK
Author: Ali Sparkes
Rating 8/10
Alisha is a brainy girl who hates sports and struggles to make friends. She is constantly worried about what the cool girls think of her and wishes she could be popular. Theo could not be more different; he’s new to the area, hyper and doesn’t care what anyone thinks. Yet after the both survive the strike, they each begin to change – and not just because of the cool scars they have on their feet.
The ghosts, Doug and Lizzie, are fun in many ways, with their 70s clothes and pop culture references, but there’s a serious side to all the ghostly goings on and it’s more than just friendship that forms between the four as local events take a shadowy turn.
Are the phantoms messengers of doom?

Title: Me And Mister P
Author: Maria Farrer
Rating: 7.5/10
Arthur has had enough. His life is a never-ending cycle of Liam this, Liam that, Liam blah blah blah, while Arthur just gets told off. He picks up his lucky crystal and his survival tin and leaves home. Forever. Or, he would have done if Mister P hadn't been stood on his doorstep with a rather smelly suitcase and a label with his address on it…
This is such a heart-warming tale of understanding and tolerance, about being a good friend and a better brother. Maria Farrer depicts the emotional struggles Arthur and his family face with compassion and heart, while Daniel Ridley’s illustrations add depth and humour to this beautiful book.
How will Arthur find accepting Liam?
