|title= Oh Baby, the Places You'll Go
|rating= 4
|genre= For Sharing
|summary=A slightly odd concept to get one's head around, ''Oh Baby, the Places You'll Go'' is both a book within a book, and a book sized advert all in one. Dr Seuss (fun fact: 'Seuss' originally rhymed with 'voice') wrote many, many books in his lifetime, and lots of us will be familiar with his best-known characters such as [[The Cat in the Hat by Dr Seuss|The Cat in the Hat]] and the copious numbers of adventures he wrote about such as when [[Horton Hears a Who by Dr Seuss|Horton Hears a Who]]. This book is different, because rather than introducing new wild and wacky characters, it brings together existing ones who may never have met each other before. Adapted by Tish Rabe (though very much influenced by Dr Seuss's originals), this book rattles through the different titles and their key characters, knitting them together with the premise that these are all people baby will meet in the future, through the wonder of children's books.

|title=Worry Angels

|summary=Amy-May was devastated when her parents split up: she and her mother left the delightful seaside cottage where the waves had sung her to sleep and moved into a 'garden flat'. That didn't mean that it had a garden, just that it was on the ground floor. They didn't have a lot of possessions as the bailiffs had taken most of them. Her father was living in another old cottage now and hopefully he'd be able to set up his kiln, but he wouldn't be able to home-school Amy-May. The alternative was Sandcastles Secondary School but the rather nervous Amy was considered to be too ''anxious'' to start at the school full time. As a gentle introduction to schooling she went to Grace's art school instead.
