The Learning Curves of Vanessa Partridge is a warm and funny coming-of-age story about finding your voice. Also for teens, Becky Albertalli’s much-anticipated sequel to Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda (now the film, Love, Simon) has arrived in-store. Leah on the Offbeat follow Simon’s BFF Leah as she grapples with senior year angst.
Last Monday, we also revealed the winner of the 2018 Readings Children’s Book Prize – Tarin of the Mammoths: The Exile by Jo Sandhu! We’re so happy to see it listed among our bestsellers.
Chair of the judging panel, Kim Gruschow, says: ‘This is an action-packed and unputdownable Stone Age epic for ages 8 to 12 that is guaranteed to have readers on the edge of their seats.’ You can read the full judges’ report here. There are already two other books in the Tarin of the Mammoths trilogy available and we’re delighted to offer all three of them in a specially priced pack.
And finally – a new episode of The Bad Guys has been released into the wild. Do-you-think-he-saurus?! is another crazy, uproarious adventure, this time set in the Jurassic Age.
