The Maker of Monsters by Lorraine Gregory

Paperback: 256 pages Publisher: OUP Oxford (2 May 2019) ISBN-13: 978-0192768834 Brat, the unlikely hero of the story, is a orphaned boy who is rescued and forced to serve an evil magician/mad scientist - Lord Macawber. Since being exiled from the city, Macawber has lived only to avenge his rival and rescue his daughter (Ellari) by creating an army of vicious mutant monsters - using the magic of necromancy. Focused solely on defeating his enemy, Lord Macawber creates the strongest monster of all.

Baller Boys by Vanessa Taylor

It was a pleasure to be ask to be part of the blog tour, as Baller Boys is set to be a fabulous new accessible series with the focus on the very popular subject of football. When we meet best friends and football fanatics, Shay and Frankie, they are just finishing Year 3 and heading into the summer holidays.

The story follows their trial, the other boys they meet along the way, their disappointment and elation, families, friendship and their commitment to the game.

The characters/families in this book are warm and relatable which is sure to make them very popular. I am aware that these books are written ...

I was expecting an abundance of humour – but what I got was so much more. Surprisingly, Junkyard Jack was an emotional rollercoaster of a book. In among the humour of Uncle Ted’s flatulence problems (complete with comical wind instrument references), and a moody and very opinionated Shetland pony named Boadicea, Edmondson deals with sensitive issues such as dyslexia, loss, incarceration and estran...
