|title=Star Wars Where's the Wookiee? 2 Search and Find Activity Book
|rating=4
|genre=Confident Readers
|summary=It's not enough these days, you know, to have just one franchise. No, you have to match it with another. You have to mash ''Doctor Who'' with the ''Mister Men''. You need zombies in your [[Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith|Pride and Prejudice]] (don't laugh, the book was much better than the film). Batman has to have a Lego equivalent (and don't laugh, for the film was awfully unfunny). Even when you're a Disneyfied, new-film-every-year-like-it-or-not behemoth like ''Star Wars'', you need some secondary property to latch on to. Hence this, which as the title suggests, is the second book asking you to find the Wookie in the Wally/Waldo-esque scenes.

|author=Dodie Smith, Peter Bently and Steven Lenton
|summary=In [[Son of the Morning by Mark Alder|Son of the Morning]], author Mark Alder plunges the reader into a chaotic, dangerous world, taking them back to the turbulent reign of Edward III and the dangers of the Hundred Years War. Adding elements of fantasy and theology to the mix, Alder created an intriguing read which is continued in ''Son of the Night''. With Lucifer, Satan, God, Devils and Angels interacting with a cast of real and well researched characters, Alder continues his exploration of the Hundred Years war whilst rather incredibly keeping his readers as educated as they are entertained.

|author=Kenneth Grahame and Robert Ingpen
|title=The Wind in The Willows
|rating=4
|genre=Confident Readers
|summary=Kenneth Grahame's ''The Wind in the Willows'' was one of the defining books of my childhood and more than sixty years after I first read the book I've just recently passed it onto another young reader. Since the book was first published in 1908 there have been some notable illustrators: Paul Bransom provided illustrations for the 1913 edition, Ernest H Shepard (perhaps better known for his illustrations of ''Winnie the Pooh'') in 1933, Arthur Rackham (possibly the leading illustrator from the golden age of book illustration) in 1940 and Robert Ingpen who illustrated the centenary edition of ''The Wind in the Willows''.
