A way the stars by David Almond and Gill Smith
Joe wants to find a way to the stars. With the help of his dad, he builds a ladder, a tower, even a rocket to go up, up, up. Oh no! Crash, bang, wallop! What next? Together, the pair jump on pogo sticks and build sheds to paint their dreams and find a way. An uplifting and magical tale of sky-high courage, imagination and the bond between father and son that will make your heart soar.

Some desperate glory by Emily Tesh
All her life, Kyr has trained for the day she can avenge the destruction of planet Earth. Raised on Gaea Station alongside the last scraps of humanity, she is one of the best warriors of her generation, the sword of a dead planet. Then Command assigns her brother to certain death and relegates her to the nursery to bear sons, and she knows she must take humanity's revenge into her own hands. Alongside her brother's brilliant but seditious friend and a lonely, captive alien, Kyr must escape from everything she's ever known.

Where the heart is Kate Humble.
Kate Humble has a knack for sharing her own journey towards a more pleasing and purposeful life in a way that inspires readers, enables them to reassess their own lives and helps them achieve their personal goals. Having encouraged readers to reconnect with nature in 'Thinking on My Feet' and simplify their lifestyles in 'A Year of Living Simply', she turns now to reimagining the ideal home - examining her own experiences and expectations, considering all the elements necessary to futureproof her home life, taking advice from others living uniquely, extraordinarily, happily, and gaining insights from some unexpected quarters - including the animal kingdom.
