The Beginning of Everything (9780062217141)

Robyn Schneider's The Beginning of Everything is a witty and heart-wrenching teen novel that will appeal to fans of books by John Green and Ned Vizzini, novels such as The Perks of Being a Wallflower, and classics like The Great Gatsby and The Catcher in the Rye. Varsity tennis captain Ezra Faulkner was supposed to be homecoming king, but that was before--before his girlfriend cheated on him, before a car accident shattered his leg, and before he fell in love with unpredictable new girl Cassidy Thorpe. As Kirkus said in a starred review, Schneider takes familiar stereotypes and infuses them with plenty of depth. Here are teens who could easily trade barbs and double entendres with the characters that fill John Green's novels. Funny, smart, and including everything from flash mobs to blanket forts to a poodle who just might be the reincarnation of Jay Gatsby, The Beginning of Everything is a refreshing contemporary twist on the classic coming-of-age novel--a heart-wrenching sto...

Somebody Swallowed Stanley (9781407195100)



"Plastic bags don't belong in the sea!"

As read by Tom Hardy on Cbeebies Bedtime Stories


Everybody has a taste for Stanley - and the other ocean creatures
just keep mistaking him for a delicious treat - but
this is no ordinary jellyfish.

Most jellyfish have dangly-gangly tentacles, but Stanley has two
handles...

Other jellyfish have a magical glow, but Stanley has stripes...

Because Stanley (spoiler alert) is a plastic
bag!

A beautifully illustrated picture book with a powerful message
about plastic pollution from environmental expert Sarah Roberts.

The perfect gift to introduce children to the issues of plastic
in our oceans

Brilliant for teachers to read to children in class when introducing
them to pollution issues
