I loved playing computer games and trying to get hold of gameboys and other gadgets which we couldn't afford. Often borrowed or just watching others do it, it was one of those things that I've always been in the peripherals are. I'm also a child of comic books - India is big on comics and most of the epics I learnt about - more than the stories told at home, I was reading them as comics. </p><p>As a writer visiting schools, I often create workshops around games and stories - where characters can enter the realm of games or into the world of their favourite TV programmes to enthuse those kids who are more into gaming than into reading. </p><p>So when I picked up Aisha Bushby's A Pocketful of Stars, I was so happy to read about the contemporary setup of games and animation stories and the friendship (and rivalries) of girls. But this story took me by surprise - the layers of emotions added into it. From a divorce of parents, to blended heritages, to theatre and drama, the story threads through difficult subjects in realistic and yet magical ways.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://uk.bookshop.org/a/4527/9781405293198" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="475" data-original-width="312" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xrBuyTXkfXc/X88BTCAxqOI/AAAAAAAAHvY/S96u50HIeeEpJG9-Lck5jR2diHy5AQ1pQCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/43667892._SY475_.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p>Then the magic - the way the game and the reality blends, and how the analogy of the relationship plays out in this game and in real life - this was beautifully done, no doubt, painstakingly crafted. </p><p>The book's emotional punches are never pulled right until the end and when I was reading the last few chapters on a train, I found myself crying on the tube perhaps adding to the myth of "emotional immigrant". I was so gutted by the end and yet so happy to have read the story and gone on this journey. </p><p>The book is great to read as a class or by children on their own - but beyond the magic and games, the story will offer discussions, perhaps will open pathways of dialogue between friends, between parents and children - about relationships, guilts and our identities. </p><p>If you have not read this book yet, what are you waiting for? </p><p>Listen to <a href="https://www.aishabushby.com/" target="_blank">Aisha Bushby</a> read a little from this book here. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/G6hv85gQoRg" width="320" youtube-src-id="G6hv85gQoRg"></iframe></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

and the joy of its revelation.’ </i>If these wise words were not enough to
encourage me to open the book, then the quote from Daniel Johnson’s lyrics worked
their magic.<p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><i>‘The colours are bright, bright as ever.<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><i>The red is strong, the blue is true.<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><i>Some things last a long time.<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><i>Some things last a lifetime.<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">I had seen Daniel Johnson perform
at the Union Chapel; taken there by a good friend. A few years later, just like
Wolf, my friend had disappeared from our lives. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So, this is how the story goes:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Fox and his old friend Wolf spend a perfect day together at
their favourite spot by the lake. They talk and laugh and swim together in the
bright sunshine. Towards the end of this perfect day, Wolf places a big, grey
paw on Fox’s shoulder and says, ‘<i>Tomorrow
I will be starlight.’ <o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The next day Wolf is nowhere to be found. Fox searches
everywhere and still she waits for Wolf.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">‘<i>He said he was going
to be starlight,<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i>So maybe he’s up there
in the sky.’<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As night falls Fox heads up the mountains that surround the
lake and calls out for Wolf. She is in search of the brightest star. She pulls
the <i>‘shining star blanket’</i> around her
and cries in the darkness. This is the moment that she knows that Wolf is never
coming back. Through her tears she recalls Wolf’s words; <i>‘Life really is beautiful.’ </i>From that moment ‘<i>all the things they had done together came flooding back in bright
colours.’ </i> Fox now understands that
Wolf is gone but all their happy memories would be with her always. She is able
to carry on.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The world is surrounded by swirly, jagged mountains that we
first meet in a cool green on the endpapers. There is also a bird that will
appear throughout the story to support Fox. By the end of the story the landscape
is flooded by light and sunshine. The illustrations reveal the emotional journey.
The image of Fox wrapped in the velvety star blanket is heart wrenching but is
followed by an image of a little red paw in the sunshine which moves us beyond the
grief and sadness. Fox is not alone. There is the little bird and also a mouse
for friendship and support, and of course there are happy memories. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The impact of this story lasts a long time.<o:p></o:p></p>

Her family live by fishing and the few animals they keep. They have no slaves and only one servant. Ran has an uneasy relationship with her widowed mother, though she loves her grandmother, Amma.</p><p><span> The story begins when a stranger comes to their home. Vigut is handsome, strong and assertive. Ran discovers later that he is a man from her mother's past. Her mother had wanted to marry him, but he was poor, and the marriage was not allowed by her family. Right from the start, the mood of the story is ominous. Ran notices that Vigut's horse is not well cared for and shows marks of beating. This man is trouble.</span><br /></p><p><span> Vigut travels with Ran and her mother to distant Sessing for the seasonal sacrifice to Odin. It soon becomes clear that Vigut plans to seize Sessing from its owner Finnulf. On the long cold journey the travellers are attacked by wolves, and Ran's mother is mortally wounded. She dies soon after they arrive, leaving Ran in danger, both from Vigut and from the terrifying wise-woman Gullveig. But it's also at Sessing that Ran meets Toki, the man she will come to love, and with whom she will travel to a new life and new adventures.</span></p><p><span> Although only 150 pages long, this is an epic story, full of action. It deserves to be read both for its historical drama and for the convincing portrayal of family relationships and of a young girl's troubled emotions. It has certainly made me want to seek out Henrietta Branford's other books.</span></p><p><br /></p><p>First published by Hodder in 1996.

It focuses on a wide range of girls and boys / young men and women from different cultures and backgrounds, as well as different periods in history. <div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mUb1tLdmbs8/X7JYAylo59I/AAAAAAAAH1k/YS05VQYK76gKX-PaRfJ79JJDRfi6m_JsQCNcBGAsYHQ/s612/YOUTHQUAKE%2B-%2B50%2BChildren%2Band%2BYoung%2BPoeple%2Bthat%2BShook%2Bthe%2BWorld.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="612" data-original-width="532" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mUb1tLdmbs8/X7JYAylo59I/AAAAAAAAH1k/YS05VQYK76gKX-PaRfJ79JJDRfi6m_JsQCNcBGAsYHQ/s320/YOUTHQUAKE%2B-%2B50%2BChildren%2Band%2BYoung%2BPoeple%2Bthat%2BShook%2Bthe%2BWorld.jpg" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div>The author, Tom Adams has selected young people that have made a name for themselves in their own field - be it sports, science, music etc but who have also made an impact one way or another with what they have done and achieved. It's good that the chosen figures span a long period in history - the earliest being Pocahontas (b.1596) and Blaise Pascal (b. 1623). The most recent are Greta Thunberg (b.2003) and Marley Dias (b.2005). The figures in between comprise a mixture of familiar and not so familiar figures, some, like Mozart, are obvious choices whereas others, like Bjork or Emma Watson come as a pleasant and welcome surprise. Many, though not all, of the people included have also had to overcome some sort of difficulty or set back in their lives yet have still made a huge impact. </div><div><br /></div><div>The book is is usefully divided into sections - Think & Invent, Create & Dream, Hope & Believe, Lead & Triumph, and Change & Conquer. Each of the 50 young people have been given a double page spread which includes brief biography giving details of their lives and achievements up to the things they have done to Shake the World. Each spread is brightly illustrated by Sarah Walsh and many include photographs too.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-U3XeAjIdSo0/X7JZ9dfsG_I/AAAAAAAAH1w/Zy2n9L1TnggmvLMn5gIyyQg2Ic4HHNyuACNcBGAsYHQ/s512/Youthquake%2Binside.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="359" data-original-width="512" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-U3XeAjIdSo0/X7JZ9dfsG_I/AAAAAAAAH1w/Zy2n9L1TnggmvLMn5gIyyQg2Ic4HHNyuACNcBGAsYHQ/s320/Youthquake%2Binside.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div>This is a great book that highlights the achievements of young people everywhere whilst also sending a positive and encouraging message to all young readers that they too can achieve whatever they want if they are determined enough - no matter what setbacks they might face and no matter how underprivileged they may feel. The inclusion of so many modern day achievers helps make the book more current and attractive to young readers whilst also showing that not all great achievements were made in the past. A great addition any book shelf.</div></div>Damian Harveyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06186889040243262544noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208916304244016951.post-91853431312681456832020-11-10T10:56:00.000+00:002020-11-10T10:56:12.280+00:00The Best of Times The Worst of Times by Paul Behrens - Reviewed by Kelly McCaughrain<p>This is technically an adult book, but I thought any older teens interested in climate change would find it really helpful and interesting.The author, Paul Behrens, as well as being an environmental expert, is also an award-winning science communicator, and I think that really comes across in the book. It's very readable, even for non-sciency people (I know nothing about science and even I understood it), and he manages to make it not only understandable but fascinating. </p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pIMVVp-89bs/X6pwYlNrn_I/AAAAAAAAIA4/7PZbVqXb24IgIu7V6SKX8bZ-KLxuzm_kwCLcBGAsYHQ/s1280/61ybyx1hrTL.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="817" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pIMVVp-89bs/X6pwYlNrn_I/AAAAAAAAIA4/7PZbVqXb24IgIu7V6SKX8bZ-KLxuzm_kwCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/61ybyx1hrTL.jpg" /></a></div><p></p><p>The structure of the book is also really clever. Behrens says he wrote it because when you tell people at dinner parties that you're an environmental scientist, the first thing they ask you is 'How long have we got?' or 'What's going to happen?' This book is his answer to that question and it's laid out in alternating chapters of 'Hope' and 'Pessimism'. </p><p>It's broken down into sections like 'Food', 'Energy', 'Population' etc, and then each section has a 'Pessimism' chapter that explains what will happen if we do nothing to remedy these problems, and a 'Hope' section explaining what is possible if we act now. </p><p>With the result that it's really a roller-coaster of a book! I finished each Pessimism chapter feeling truly worried, but with each Hope chapter I was amazed by all the possibilities we actually have already at our disposal. </p><p>I think it's a really comprehensive introduction to the subject for anyone. It doesn't dumb down the science, it doesn't sugar-coat things, but it also offers possibilities that we can work towards, and, most importantly of all, inspires the reader to go and do something about it, which is what all those Hope chapters are kind of dependent on.</p><p>So I'd recommend it for any adults who want to read about climate change but are sick of doom-laden newspaper articles, fake news Twitter feeds, or just the sheer absence of the subject from political discussion. And if you have a teen who's thinking about all this, I'd recommend it for them too. The only chapter I found a little hard to get my head around was the one on the economy (but who understands the economy anyway?), the rest were a really fascinating and enjoyable read and I finished the whole book in a few days. It's not a list of dry facts and science, it's full of stories, but still, every other page contained a fact that just blew my mind, to the extent that I started writing them down so I could launch them at my husband over dinner. </p><p>For example, did you know:</p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Flygskam is a Swedish word meaning ‘flight shame’. It refers
to the sheer embarrassment at being seen using air travel in a climate
emergency. Sweden reduced their air travel by 8% in 2019.</li><li>The total number of deaths globally each year from air pollution
are fifteen times more than all wars and other violent deaths combined.</li><li>The WHO say it would cost less to meet climate change
targets than it costs for healthcare for the damage done by air pollution. </li><li>The average US fridge uses seven times more electricity than
the average Ethiopian uses per year in total. </li><li>When you fill the fuel tank of your car, the energy flowing
through your hand per second is equivalent to the peak physical labour of
62,500 people. </li><li>In the US, the richest 400 families pay a lower tax rate than any other income group, including the working
class. There is likely somewhere between $9 and $36 trillion sitting in tax
havens around the world. The cost to address climate change by completely
decarbonizing the global economy by 2050 sits at around $19 to $23 trillion.</li><li>Each litre of petrol burnt in a car melts over a tonne of
glacial ice.</li></ul><p class="MsoNormal"><i>And </i>did you know that a third of the UK public are already suffering from eco-anxiety? I imagine a lot of them are young people. I don't think burying our heads in the sand is a helpful response to this anxiety, I think that just makes it worse. This book is ultimately a hopeful one because it gives the reader the information they need to understand the situation and how it can be changed. And it makes it clear that, although we have a role to play by reducing our carbon footprint, the problem won't be solved by blaming us or making us feel guilty about not filling our blue bins. It's about the government, the big polluting companies, the culture of consumption, the mega-wealthy tax-dodgers. I thought it was a great read and I really recommend you put it on your Christmas list!<br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

it could well suit young adult readers. Vera Brittain's memoir of her
own teenage years in a time of even more turmoil than our world faces
right now is inspiring, though sombre. Brittain wrote the book in the
1930s after mulling over the material and wondering for a long time how
to present it, but it deals with her coming of age in the First World
War. She made a few false starts, once trying to fictionalise it, before
settling on a narrative that quotes letters and diaries in places and
elsewhere recreates what she lived through as though she remembered
every word spoken. It works, and is a most touching and, at times,
harrowing account of the worst of times. </p><p>In some ways, the world
of 1914 — only just over 100 years ago — is jarringly distant. The
family wait for letters, spend agonizing days unaware of whether their
loved ones have survived a 'push' on the western front, and hear
conflicting news reports that are only slowly resolved into anything
definite. In a world where we know what is happening the other side of
the world seconds after it's happened, it's strange to step back into a
time so dislocated from distant events. </p><p>Yet there is much in
Vera's story that will be familiar. She goes to university — a rare
achievement for a young woman — but leaves because of the war. Those
freshers who have just fled their universities ahead of the latest
lockdown might share some of her feelings of wretched disappointment and
being cheated of what they had earned. The turmoil into which ordinary
life is cast feels familiar, though our turmoil is not of the same order
of magnitude. I think what will speak to young people in Brittain's
account is the feeling of loss. Not just the loss of individuals,
cruelly and wastefully slaughtered, but the loss of youth, of a
generation's spirit, of their energy, optimism, innocence, confidence
and enthusiasm for life. She reflects, looking back, that what they lost
was irrecoverable. The time before the war is a shimmering phantasm of a
life gone forever. There is some of that feeling now, as we realise the
things we took for granted. They were the most basic, unexamined
pleasures — going to a café, meeting friends in their houses, watching a
movie, wandering in and out of shops without queuing, picking up
something someone dropped and passing it back to them...</p><p>We don't
know how long the pandemic will go on. Two years? Three? More? Like the
First World War, many people expected it to be short at the start. No
one is being honest even now about the real prospects, just as they
weren't in the war. In Britain, it comes with the additional
catastrophic disruption of Brexit — another event that has stolen so
much that our young people grew up expecting to have available to them.
The Testament is not a cheery book in any sense, but I feel it speaks to
the spirit of our age, particularly to our young people. The young
people in the book show such fortitude and compassion, as many of our
young people are doing now. It is not cheery, but it in some ways it is
heartwarming and hints at hope. We could all do with some hope right
now.</p><p><a href="http://www.annerooney.com" target="_blank">Anne Rooney</a></p><p><br /></p>Stroppy Authorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16560035800075465845noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208916304244016951.post-65248677713910964322020-10-30T06:00:00.201+00:002020-10-30T06:00:03.291+00:00THE RIVERS OF LONDON by Ben Aaronovitch - and more! Review by Penny Dolan<div class="separator"><p style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><br /></p></div><p></p><p style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img alt="Rivers of London (novel) - Wikipedia" class="detail__media__img-highres js-detail-img js-detail-img-high" height="299" src="https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fupload.wikimedia.org%2Fwikipedia%2Fen%2Fthumb%2F5%2F5d%2FRivers_of_London.jpg%2F220px-Rivers_of_London.jpg&f=1&nofb=1" style="display: block; height: 357px; width: 220px;" width="184" /></p><i><b>THE RIVERS OF LONDON</b></i> is the first title in an interesting, best-selling fantasy crime series, written by <b>BEN AARONOVITCH</b> who also, as a scriptwriter, has contributed scripts to Doctor Who TV series. <br /><p></p><p><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;"><i><u>Important point.</u> As the Awfully Big Review blog usually suggests titles for young children, MG or secondary school readers, thie Rivers of London series comes with an Awfully Big Warning: these crime novels are fantasies aimed at adult readers. </i></span></b></p><p><i><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;">However, they also have an energy, enthusiasm and attitude might appeal to older young adults too. Please read the books and judge for yourself first.</span></b><br /></i></p><p>I am recommending the <b>RIVERS OF LONDON</b> because the whole series - completed through a few loaned copies from a friend - saw me through the six
lockdown months in a way that the reading of literary, contemporary
or other novels rarely did. Escapism was better during long nights than reality!<br /></p><p>Aaronovitch's writing and plotting has acknowledged echoes of Terry Pratchett's fantasy style - which I already enjoy - but with added sex, violence and large explosions. <br /></p><p>Being unable to visit my old home town of London right now, I really appreciated the London-centric so, I enjoyed being reminded of that huge city. Moreover, the ingenious plots roam away from reality and go riffling through London's hidden geography and back story.</p><p>T<img alt="Moon Over Soho by Ben Aaronovitch | Orion - Bringing You ..." class="tile--img__img js-lazyload" data-src="//external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftse1.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3DOIP.-RAP82rilPgpeyKq6fnK2gHaLY%26pid%3DApi&f=1" height="267" src="https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftse1.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3DOIP.-RAP82rilPgpeyKq6fnK2gHaLY%26pid%3DApi&f=1" width="185" /></p><p>The main character in these first person novels is Peter Grant who starts as a probationary PC in the Met, straight from the police college at Hendon. Peter is mixed race: his admirable, disciplinarian mother is from Sierra Leone while his disreputable father is a white, often-stoned jazz musician. </p><p>Across the whole series, Aaranovitch's character "casting " - without being heavily issue-led - draws on the diversity of London's population and cultures today, which is a strong factor behind my recommending these books for the oldest young adults: <br /></p><p><img alt="Whispers Under Ground - Wikipedia" class="detail__media__img-highres js-detail-img js-detail-img-high" height="348" src="https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fupload.wikimedia.org%2Fwikipedia%2Fen%2Ff%2Ffd%2FWhispers_Under_Ground.jpg&f=1&nofb=1" style="display: block; height: 399px; width: 250px;" width="218" /> <br /></p><p></p><p>That diversity is echoed in supernatural inhabitants of the city. In the first book, while investigating a weird murder in the precincts of Covent Garden, Peter discovers that he can sense the presence of magic and spot the often invisible magical population,
who over the series range from viciously sharp-toothed, man-hating vampires, to
unicorns, ancient kinds of lost tribes, goblin markets, untrustworthy fae and even the dreaded Faceless Man. <br /></p><p>Chief among this cast, we soon learn, are the members of the powerful River "families" -
the jealous, inter-related gods and goddesses of the Thames and its tributaries -
with whom Peter
becomes ever more closely embroiled. </p><p><img alt="Broken Homes (Peter Grant Series #4) by Ben Aaronovitch ..." class="tile--img__img js-lazyload" data-src="//external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftse1.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3DOIP.VK-QVIZZhcrE7RiqUIkEgwAAAA%26pid%3DApi&f=1" height="331" src="https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftse1.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3DOIP.VK-QVIZZhcrE7RiqUIkEgwAAAA%26pid%3DApi&f=1" width="211" /></p><p>As the only magical police officer in London, Peter is sent to a secret, wonderfully-gothic police station, known as The Folly. There,
through the enigmatic patience of the gentlemanly ageless wizard known as Nightingale, Peter gradually masters the Newtonian magical arts and defences, while solving mysterious murders and magical power-grabs around and beyond London and at times - oh, Peter! - loving unwisely and well. <br /></p><p>What I also welcomed was that, during the course of the series, Aarnovitch's plots rest on interesting "real history" events and locations. Each novel unfolds around a different broad scenario: Soho's once-thriving music & nightclub industry, the development of the Metropolitan Underground Railway, "architectural" tower block re-developments around the Elephant and Castle, secret woodland hideaways for wealthy magical scientist in the Chilterns, through to the ancient hanging tree of Tyburn. And, possibly, worrying incidents around the Vale of Health. <i>( A location last met in Lissa Evans's "Old Baggage" historical trilogy.)</i><br /></p><p></p><p style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"> <img alt="The Hanging Tree by Ben Aaronovitch | Thriller Books at ..." class="tile--img__img js-lazyload" data-src="//external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftse4.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3DOIP.moqYFF5XXSggj4pky6Gk2wAAAA%26pid%3DApi&f=1" src="https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftse4.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3DOIP.moqYFF5XXSggj4pky6Gk2wAAAA%26pid%3DApi&f=1" /></p>Although the <i><b>Rivers of London </b></i>titles are already a much-praised series, not everyone has come across them, or been lured in to the pages, so they seemed worth mentioning.<p></p><p>So, if you might feel a sense of <i>"vestigia"</i> in an old building or object, admire the art of throwing a werelight, and are not too alarmed by crashing doors and collapsing buildings and a touch of gruesomeness, you might enjoy reading the Rivers yourself.</p><p>Then, maybe, recommend them to any other readers who would appreciate wild supernatural fun, humour and excitement.</p><p>Especially if times continue grim. <br /></p><p> </p><p>Penny Dolan</p><p>@pennydolan1 <br /></p><p><span style="color: #2b00fe;"><i>Here is the current list of Aaronovitch's novels: <b>THE RIVERS OF LONDON; MOON OVER SOHO; WHISPERS UNDERGROUND; BROKEN HOMES; FOXGLOVE SUMMER</b>; <b>THE FURTHEST STATION</b>; <b>THE HANGING TREE, LIES SLEEPING; THE OCTOBER MAN </b>and <b>FALSE VALUE. </b>(There are also several graphic novels and short stories and a TV series is currently being developed by Simon Pegg and Nick Frost)</i></span><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><br /><p><br /></p>Penny Dolanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16386668303428008498noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208916304244016951.post-17158246094945680542020-10-25T03:00:00.004+00:002020-10-25T03:00:05.003+00:00Tiger, Tiger, Burning Bright! - Fiona Walters & Britta Teckentrup: reviewed by Sue Purkiss<p>The subtitle of this book is 'An animal poem for every day of the year'.

Guppy is the brainchild of Bella Pearson, who is one of the most intelligent and delightful of editors. Full disclosure:Bella used to work at David Fickling Books and was hugely helpful t0 me in the editing of my novel <i>Dido</i>.<i> </i>I also know Louisa Reid, who invited me to talk to her pupils when I first moved to Cambridge. As ever, you will have to believe me when I say that I have the luxury of never having to write a review of a book I don't love. Indeed, I give up books I'm not keen on very speedily indeed. </span></span></div><div><span style="font-size: small; font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></span></div></div><div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">I had no such problems with this book. It’s written in a form Reid first used in <i>Gloves Off</i>, a free- form poetry that works well to speed up action and uses rhyme, rhythm, and all the prosodic resources of more traditional verse to raise the emotional temperature and produce a narrative of great power and deep feeling.</span></div><div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: OpenSans-webfont;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /></span></div><div style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><span face="OpenSans-webfont" style="color: #333333;">Joe, who’s just done his A-Levels, has been involved in a car accident in which a woman in another car died. We see the trial unfold and the court room drama is interrupted by flashbacks to the relationship between Joe and Imogen, who first fell in love when they were fourteen years old. Joe’s father is dying. Imogen’s family is wealthy. I’m giving away no spoilers but the really admirable thing about ‘</span><i style="color: #333333;">Wrecked’</i><span face="OpenSans-webfont" style="color: #333333;"> is the nuanced picture it paints of young love. It’s also good on families, school, and the justice system. If I were a teacher I’d give it to all reluctant readers who will rejoice at the sight of very few words on the page. It's also for anyone who loves a good love story. Fans of <span style="caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">courtroom</span> drama will be enthralled. </span></span></div><div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /></span></div><div style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: georgia;">I usually quote a passage from a book I’m reviewing but I don't trust myself to reproduce the typography so here’s a <span style="caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">photograph</span> of one of the pages: </span></span></div><div style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-_cfNoEClql4/X4HmWFNJiWI/AAAAAAAACco/udmAADJaOKIUpuzFvI66nyh_NL6anHU7QCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/IMG_0662.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1690" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-_cfNoEClql4/X4HmWFNJiWI/AAAAAAAACco/udmAADJaOKIUpuzFvI66nyh_NL6anHU7QCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/IMG_0662.jpg" /></span></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #333333; font-family: georgia; text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #333333; font-family: georgia; text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #333333; font-family: georgia; text-align: left;">It's shelved under YA I'm sure but I loved it and I have grandchildren of Joe and Imogen's age And yes, I confess....there were tears along the way. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span face="OpenSans-webfont" style="caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #333333; text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span face="OpenSans-webfont" style="caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #333333; text-align: left;"><br /></span></div></span></div></div>adelehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15826710558292792068noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208916304244016951.post-27306861435678454772020-10-15T02:30:00.018+01:002020-10-15T02:30:01.468+01:00Word of Mouse by Chris Grabenstein, James Patterson, Illustrated by Joe Sutphin, reviewed by Chitra Soundar<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: center;">I normally don’t review books by super-star author or celebrities.

visit bookshops and browse. I like to go into a bookshop with no clear choice
in mind and see what attracts my interest and attention. Browsing picture books
is harder because of their shape and size and the issues of displaying. Also
during these Covid times when one is advised to only pick up something that you
want to buy, it makes book buying for someone like me, who likes to feel the
weight and texture of a book before deciding to buy, more challenging. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Colour Monster drew my attention because of the large
expanse of white and its collage style on the front cover. I was also intrigued
to find out what a Colour Monster was. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The story is told by a girl who is talking to her friend, the
Colour Monster. The Colour Monster is all mixed up and very confused and
doesn’t know why. His feelings and his colours are all stirred together. His
friend suggests separating out the feelings and their associated colours into
different jars so they can look at them more closely. They explore the colours
and feelings of happiness, sadness, anger, fear and calm.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The girl helps and supports the Colour Monster. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">‘<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Being afraid can make
you feel<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Very small and alone.
If you’re<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Scared, tell me why
and we’ll walk<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Through the forest
together.’<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The simplicity of the text alongside the child-like drawings
and the collage style is one of the strengths of this story. It is funny and
sweet. This story would be incredibly useful to support young children to
untangle and label their feelings particularly if they are having difficulties
or need additional support. Online there are many resources for parents and teachers
to use this book. There is also a board game https://www.kosmosgames.co.uk/games/the-colour-monster/.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The simplicity of the story is a strength but it also raises,
like all good picture books so often do, some questions.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There has been criticism of the book: by
separating out emotions it is suggesting that it is not ‘normal’ to feel lots
of emotions at once whereas we often do experience a tangle of feelings.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Labelling emotions as colours can also be problematical as
children (and adults) may have different feelings about what colours represent
to them. However organising, labelling and understanding feelings is an
important first step and this book provides a great start to a lifelong
understanding of our emotions and how they interact with each other. <o:p></o:p></p>

Reviewed by Ann Turnbull<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-0xvzyfzyXW8/X2H21Yp9z8I/AAAAAAAAAog/NZLwnvgfUdAyrvpWSryFMOi5C-ApCOH5QCLcBGAsYHQ/518vTKFgcKL.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="333" height="240" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-0xvzyfzyXW8/X2H21Yp9z8I/AAAAAAAAAog/NZLwnvgfUdAyrvpWSryFMOi5C-ApCOH5QCLcBGAsYHQ/518vTKFgcKL.jpg" width="160" /></a></div><br /> In this short book, Susan Price has created an engrossing story of loss and adventure. Sixteen-year-old Aslak - born a slave but freed by his father - sets off on a quest to find his sister Astrid. Until their father's death, Astrid and Aslak had lived at home with their father's legitimate children - but when teenage Aslak returns home from his first trading voyage he finds that his father has died and his brothers have sold Astrid into slavery.<p></p><p> Aslak's journey takes him to Norway and later to Jorvik (Danish York) in England. Aslak is hasty and quick-tempered and often antagonises people, but he has a friend - a shipmate, Thorgeir - who is more diplomatic and who joins him in his search. Later, Aslak is taken under the wing of an elderly woman, whose story reveals much about the lives and beliefs of the people - especially when his bond with her leads to her offering him an unwanted honour.</p><p> The narrative is rich in detail. We learn how people lived, how their houses were constructed, what their clothes and weapons were like. Most importantly, we briefly inhabit the world as they knew it.</p><p> Those who have read any of the Norse sagas will know that they are full of violence and danger but also strict codes of honour and kinship. What Susan Price has done in this short, accessible book is to write Aslak's story in the style of the sagas without any concessions to modern sensibilities. It all rings true.</p><p><br /></p><p>Detailed historical notes are included at the end of the book.</p><p>First published by A&C Black in 1995.</p><p>This edition, available as both paperback and e-book, 2015.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>Ann Turnbullhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06484265041343702129noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208916304244016951.post-10988779802702774742020-09-15T00:30:00.000+01:002020-09-15T00:30:27.172+01:00'A Kind of Spark' by Elle McNicoll, reviewed by Pippa Goodhart<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3PGWgCFcIss/Xy0sVi2lqxI/AAAAAAAAHFs/lexkMxUT_oE78hPFGR9NVsUU9EQTbjKyQCNcBGAsYHQ/s130/Aaaa.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0px;"><img border="0" data-original-height="130" data-original-width="84" height="399" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3PGWgCFcIss/Xy0sVi2lqxI/AAAAAAAAHFs/lexkMxUT_oE78hPFGR9NVsUU9EQTbjKyQCNcBGAsYHQ/w256-h399/Aaaa.jpg" width="256" /></a></div><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 18.399999618530273px; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 18.399999618530273px; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 18.399999618530273px; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 18.399999618530273px; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">This is an important new book, and one that is already proving itself popular.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 18.399999618530273px; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 18.399999618530273px; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">Bright likeable year 6 girl Addie is autistic, and, like one of her sisters before her, is finds fitting in with school norms hard.

I don’t read a lot of graphic novels, mainly because they’re
hard to find and seem to be mostly about superheroes, sci-fi, horror or
fantasy, which I’m not really into. So when I saw <i>Jane, the Fox and Me</i>, I
grabbed it. </div>

This is a Middle Grade/YA story and, as with all Walker books,
beautifully produced. It’s a lovely physical object, and it’s a treat to turn
the pages. And the story is completely charming.<br />

Helene is bullied by the Mean Girls at her school, who
comment on her weight and ostracise her. When she has to go to nature camp with
them, things just get worse. Her only solace is reading <i>Jane Eyre,</i> which
is about a girl who is also alone, unloved, sent to a horrible school, and yet
grows up to be ‘clever, slender and wise’ and loved by Mr Rochester. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
It’s a simple story, with zero superheroes, but one of the
things I like about graphic novels is that there are so few words that the
writing has to be incredibly beautiful and efficient, and this is both. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The illustrations are just as essential to the story as the
words, and they’re beautiful to look at. The use of colour is really effective,
with Helene’s world rendered in greys and browns, while the world of <i>Jane
Eyre</i> has strong reds and blues and black. </div>

But little touches of colour start
to bleed into Helene’s life, beginning with a red fox she encounters at camp,
and suggest that there might be hope after all. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I think this is a story that lots of kids (and probably lots
of adults) will relate to, and its simple realism is made magical by the <i>Jane
Eyre</i> references and the encounter with the fox. I loved that the ending is
quiet, subtle and undramatic. There’s no big finale or showdown. The trees simply
start to turn green, a Mean Girl waves as Helene passes, and we know that she’s
going to be OK. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Based on this one, I’m definitely going to read Britt and Arsenault’s
other collaboration, <i>Louis Undercover</i>. If you like graphic novels, you
should check out <i>Jane, the Fox and Me</i>. Or if you’ve never read one
before, this is a lovely place to start.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
I was already a fan of <span class="st">Pádraig </span>Kenny, I loved his first two MG
novels, <i>Tin </i>and <i>Pog</i>, so I was really looking forward to his third. I was lucky
enough to get hold of a proof of <i>The Monsters of Rookhaven</i>, and it didn’t disappoint. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Like his first two, this book is full of heart. Just as <i>Tin </i>asked what it really means to be human, <i>The Monsters of Rookhaven</i>
asks, who are the true monsters in this world?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
(It's also continued Kenny's tradition of having the BEST covers ever.)</div>

Mirabelle knows she is a monster. She lives at Rookhaven
house with all her monster relatives, a thin veil of ‘glamour’ separating them
from the human world. But who is the glamour meant to be protecting? And what
happens when two orphaned humans stumble right through it? </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>The Monsters of Rookhaven</i> is a wartime-fantasy-haunted-house-mystery-MG set a Shirley Jackson-esque village. What more could you actually want?
It’s got literally everything in there, including some truly great characters (he managed to make a woman made entirely of spiders endearing. How?)

<i>The Monsters of Rookhaven</i> is out on 17<sup>th</sup>

But the streets seemed hushed, unnaturally silent."<br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">This is not a new book; it was first published in 1992, and it's been very successful so you might have read it already — but it merits re-reading as it's become so topical. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The novel is set in both the future and the past, though the future is now a good deal closer than it was in 1992. The world of 2054 is remarkably like 2020 in many regards, though there are a few amusing archaisms alongside rather astonishingly prescient details. Britain, or specifically, Oxford, of 2054 is in the grip of a pandemic. Simultaneously, the medieval history department of the university has dispatched a young historian, Kivrin, to the Middle Ages, intending to get her there in 1320. The rising panic of the modern pandemic is played out against the fears of Kivrin's paternalistic and protective tutor Dunworthy that she might have been accidentally sent into the Black Death, 28 years later. By a strange coincidence, our own pandemic has come 24 years too early. Some of the technology, apart from the time travel, is plausible: the implanted recorder that lets Kivrin dictate her notes to her hand, the extension of the Tube out to Oxford. Other bits are slightly off: the characters use video phones but they are still landlines, remote access to the computer systems is pretty primitive and people walk between venues to pick up information written on pieces of paper. But these are minor points; only the primitive landline-equivalent of Zoom becomes distracting.<br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">In Willis's pandemic, conspiracy theories and misinformation are as rife as they are in our own. People decide that it's a flu from India and so Indian people are stigmatized — even though early evidence suggests it originated in the USA. '"They're saying it's some sort of biological weapon... They're saying it escaped from a laboratory.'" EU sceptics jump on the bandwagon claiming the pandemic is a good reason to leave the EU. (OK, she was out a few years with that one.) People criticise the NHS (which is thankfully still going in 2054), defy the lockdown, try to work around quarantine rules and struggle with their PPE and masks. I suppose the traits of exceptionalism and defiance are basic human characteristics that any good novelist would pick up on and corral into service in a situation like this, but it's rather satisfying to see them here. A priest comments that people will initially have a burst of enthusiasm for religion and will then take shelter and hide away. Medical refusniks are the anti-vaxxers of 2054; they refuse to comply with safety measures, many of them belonging to fringe religions. The disease spreads as easily as covid-19, with people contracting it after attending a dance, or bumping into an infected person in the street. There is even a shortage of eggs, masks and toilet paper. "'Why aren't you wearing your mask?'/'It causes my spectacles to steam up.'" Even the cock-ups are the same: "Colin brought the contacts charts. They were a disaster. No attempt had been made to correlate any of the information..." It all looks horribly familiar. <br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">While modern Oxford struggles with its pandemic, Kivrin has her own battles in the Middle Ages, with little going according to plan. Despite all the careful preparations by the history department, her knowledge of the period is far from perfect. She struggles when the small child she becomes increasingly attached to is injured and she recognises that contemporary medicine can do little for her. Knowledge, truth and misinformation are major themes in the novel. Kivrin's academic knowledge of Middle English and the Middle Ages, considered rock-solid fact in the world she left, turns out to be distorted and incomplete, arousing suspicion and causing her problems. How much of what we 'know' is not actually true? The science might, as in the case of the pandemic, reveal its errors in the end, but without time travel we will never know whether we have got history right. This concern with the contingency and elusiveness of truth is as modern a theme as the pandemic around which the book is built. And it's beautifully if accidentally illustrated in the edition shown here: the iconic plague-doctor mask used to conjur up the Black Death on the cover is anachronistic as it wasn't developed until the sixteenth century. I'd like to think that was deliberate, but it's probably just incompetence. Really, if you can face another pandemic or two this is worth a read or re-read.<br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Anne Rooney</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><p></p>Stroppy Authorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16560035800075465845noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208916304244016951.post-83427590350133382452020-08-20T09:27:00.000+01:002020-08-20T09:27:56.343+01:00SOME KIDS I TAUGHT AND WHAT THEY TAUGHT ME by Kate Clanchy. Review by Penny Dolan<div class="separator"><p style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"> <img alt="Buy Some Kids I Taught and What They Taught Me ..." class="tile--img__img js-lazyload" data-src="//external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftse1.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3DOIP.uM8WfmjKpV5K10Atz8foSwAAAA%26pid%3DApi&f=1" height="303" src="https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftse1.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3DOIP.uM8WfmjKpV5K10Atz8foSwAAAA%26pid%3DApi&f=1" width="199" /></p></div><p><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;"><i>Dear Reader, </i></span></b></p><p><b><span style="color: #2b00fe;"><i>I chose this title before the news that poetry could be dropped form the 2021 GCSE syllabus, and before the announcement of the current A level exam grades in Scotland and England. The book seems even more of a necessary read to me right now. </i></span></b><br /></p><p>I found this title - <b>"Some kids I taught and what they taught me" - </b>on my local bookshop's non-fiction tables. I opened the pages and could not resist Kate Clanchy's sensible warm voice, nor the content. <br /></p><p>It was immediately clear that <b>"Some kids I taught and what they taught me"</b> was not a cosy classroom memoir but a readable book with a kind, strong heart and a passion for education for all pupils.<i> </i></p><p><i>(It also won the 2020 Orwell Prize.) </i><br /></p><p>While the current exam fiasco rumbles around like the thunder-storms, this felt the right book to be reading and recommending right now, whether as an ex-teacher, an author who occasionally teaches creative writing, or, simply, as an ordinary, everyday human being.<br /></p><p>Clanchy, who taught English within the state system for many years, writes about the children, classes and schools she has known. Over fifteen chapters - some longer than others - Clanchy offers vivid
examples and opinions on the teaching of English Literature, education
and life in schools today, emphasised through the personalities and the words of the students themselves</p><p>Her varied topics cover issues such as sex education with a group of excluded pupils; English studies for migrant and refugee
children; working with classes of third, fourth or fifth language learners; the importance of the right papers and unvarying answers: the value of prizes and of valuing the children's own work; the ranking of schools and church schools within an area; the progress of pupils inside a fourth-choice secondary school, and many more contemporary issues and controversies. </p><p>Clanchy's love of poetry and teaching runs through the pages. An established poet, creative writing tutor and journalist herself, she emphasises the practice of poetry writing and reading in schools, and the use of "model
"poems as a way of guiding and inspiring the children's responses, and building their knowledge of forms of poetry, including non-English forms, both written and spoken.</p><p>Additionally, while teaching within a multi-racial school community, Clanchy noted that the Faber
Young Poets
Competition favoured traditional poetic subjects and language for their prize entries, and that no state schools were among the winners. Determined that a wider range of voices should be heard, Clanchy
wrote to the organisers and educational press. She also, as writer-in-residence, set up lunchtime workshops for girls who rarely
spoke in class, creating the Very Quiet Foreign Pupils poetry group. Within the pages , the reader meets some of these students, their words and their spirit of co-operation, and how eventually a book of their poems was published.</p><p>In conclusion, Clanchy also - pointedly and angrily - laments an English Curriculum
based more and more on learned critical study, and rarely on the young
readers response to the writing, or to encouraging students to develop
their own written voices or find words - when they want to - for their
own experiences.</p><p>This is a serious book, yet the stories within and the mood of hope and resilience, made reading it a pleasure and an inspiration.</p><p>Penny Dolan</p><p>@pennydolan! <br /></p><p></p><br /><p><br /></p>Penny Dolanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16386668303428008498noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208916304244016951.post-30772200927424696262020-08-15T03:00:00.009+01:002020-08-15T03:00:00.432+01:00The Water's Daughter, by Michelle Lovric: reviewed by Sue Purkiss<div><font face="inherit">Michelle Lovric writes fiction for adults and children: a common theme of all her novels is a Venetian setting, and it's very clear from a reading of any of her books that she knows Venice very well, and loves it very much - I think it could certainly be argued that Venice is absolutely at the heart of her writing. She also writes non-fiction; most recently she collaborated with Gemma Dowler on a book about her mudered sister, Millie Dowling, which topped the Amazon and Times bestseller charts. She's also compiled numerous anthologies.</font></div><div><font face="inherit"><br /></font></div><div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TbZ5djztaWA/XxRI4ZGRGEI/AAAAAAAAKh4/TPZ2VOLp8DUx-_ExfjYLo16WoYnI_C7rgCLcBGAsYHQ/s316/halfstereocanal.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="288" data-original-width="316" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TbZ5djztaWA/XxRI4ZGRGEI/AAAAAAAAKh4/TPZ2VOLp8DUx-_ExfjYLo16WoYnI_C7rgCLcBGAsYHQ/s0/halfstereocanal.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">(Image taken from Michelle Lovic's website.)<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><font face="inherit"><br /></font></div><div><font face="inherit"><br /></font></div>This book, which is for children, follows on from several others set in the past, and in a parallel Venice . Geographically it's remarkably similar to the city we know today, but it also features a whole troupe of magical creatures. I was particularly delighted to meet the mermaids again: charming, beautiful, but very down-to-earth (!) creatures who live underneath the city and are distinctly foul-mouthed, owing to the fact that they learned their language from pirates. But new to this book is a whole palazzo full of magical creatures who have been transported (by mistake) from Arabia - including a beautiful and utterly amoral djinniya, who has great powers - which, fortunately for Venice, she is not very competent at handling. <div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LRER8I3QpVM/XxRItlGUyqI/AAAAAAAAKhw/N0EqiecdAOgvCkx9AQX-ZSP1g_-lRCc3QCLcBGAsYHQ/s1000/WatersDaughter.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="651" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LRER8I3QpVM/XxRItlGUyqI/AAAAAAAAKhw/N0EqiecdAOgvCkx9AQX-ZSP1g_-lRCc3QCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/WatersDaughter.jpg" /></a></div><div><br /><div><div><font face="inherit"><br /></font></div><div><font face="inherit">Its human heroine is 12 year old Aurelia Bon, the child of appalling parents who at the beginning of the book are planning to force her to marry the unpleasant son of an unpleasant family; her only other option is to be immured in a nunnery. Aurelia is not the kind of girl to put up with this sort of treatment - she has an extraordinary gift (when she touches a building, her fingers sense its history) and with this, and with a naturally strong personality, comes a firm sense of her own importance. She runs away, and encounters all sorts of dangers but also all manner of wonders. </font></div><div><font face="inherit"><br /></font></div><div><font face="inherit">She has to battle against all sorts of enemies: a jealous historian who envies her ability to pull the crowds, and has designs on her magical fingers; her ghastly suitor and his family; the very creepy priest in charge of the nunnery; a bunch of pirates (who have lots of saving graces); a group of venal politicians/businessmen whose aim is to such Venice dry of her wealth; and the djinniya. The tussle between the latter and Aurelia is positively epic: they're both powerful, both very selfish, and both actually rather likeable - more so as the book goes on and they have to face up to some uncomfortable truths about themselves.</font></div></div><div><font face="inherit"><br /></font></div><div><font face="inherit">The book is a glorious flight of imagination, with excitement, humour and glamour in shed loads. I would put it at the upper end of middle-grade - particularly near the beginning, there are some quite scary bits, which might be a bit challenging for younger children - but for the right reader, it offers a gorgeously rich reading experience. And there are the other Venetian children's novels to move on to - it's not essential to read them in sequence. So much to enjoy!</font></div></div><div><font face="inherit"><br /></font></div><div><font face="inherit">Sue Purkiss's latest book is<a href="https://blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/product/Jack-Fortune-and-the-Search-for-the-Hidden-Valley-by-Sue-Purkiss-author/9781846884283" target="_blank"> Jack Fortune and the Search for the Hidden Valley</a>.</font></div>Sue Purkisshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09084528571944803477noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208916304244016951.post-4168539179932096202020-08-05T07:00:00.024+01:002020-08-05T08:01:05.046+01:00Two Rhyming picture books by Mara Bergman - Reviewed by Chitra Soundar<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm;"><font face="inherit">This week I had the wonderful opportunity to read these two rhyming texts written by <a href="https://www.marabergman.com/" target="_blank">Mara Bergman.</a><o:p></o:p></font></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm;"><o:p><font face="inherit"> </font></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm;"><o:p><font face="inherit"> </font></o:p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><font face="inherit"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-PxJns9_zxDk/XykvZypxDSI/AAAAAAAAHmw/zeswYVdnwDk1D1JJZk2YSdsHz28YrajhQCLcBGAsYHQ/s1720/9781406366204.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1720" data-original-width="1275" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-PxJns9_zxDk/XykvZypxDSI/AAAAAAAAHmw/zeswYVdnwDk1D1JJZk2YSdsHz28YrajhQCLcBGAsYHQ/w296-h400/9781406366204.jpg" width="296" /></a></font></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><font face="inherit"><br /></font></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><font face="inherit"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MormWPR_rE8/XykvIM-6eGI/AAAAAAAAHmk/aTha2ndg6lE_3vSdfMKnlwJvkD6Ea_xjQCLcBGAsYHQ/s500/61aKdMjH1kL.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="493" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MormWPR_rE8/XykvIM-6eGI/AAAAAAAAHmk/aTha2ndg6lE_3vSdfMKnlwJvkD6Ea_xjQCLcBGAsYHQ/w394-h400/61aKdMjH1kL.jpg" width="394" /></a></font></div><font face="inherit"><br /></font><p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm;"><o:p><font face="inherit"> </font></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm;"><font face="inherit">Mara is a master in narrative rhyme.

First things first; what a joy it was to walk into Foyles in
the Royal Festival Hall, to browse and to select a book to review. [BTW Foyles
also gives 15% discount to Society of Authors’ members.]<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The Faraway Truth, originally published in the United States
as <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">From the Desk of Zoe Washington,</i>
is an amazing debut from Janae Marks. It hooked me from the first sentence,<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The day I turned
twelve, I was certain it’d be my favourite birthday yet, but then I got the
letter.’<o:p></o:p></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Zoe Washington is a Black girl who lives in Boston, USA,
with her Mom, her white stepdad and her dog, Butternut. Her ex-best friend,
Trevor, lives next door. Zoe’s passion is baking and her dream is to enter the Kid’s
Bake Challenge on the Food Network. After having an amazing birthday party
making cupcakes at Ari’s Cakes, she receives the letter. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The letter is from her father, Marcus Johnson, from
Massachusetts State Penitentiary where he is serving a long sentence for
murder. This is the first letter she has ever received. Zoe is confused, Marcus
sounds so nice and is nothing like the bad person her Mom always made him out
to be. Zoe, with the support of her Grandma, begins a secret correspondence
with him. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This is a funny, exciting, heart-warming story that does not
shy away from racism:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">‘I had no idea where
the idea of Black people as thieves came from, but it wasn’t the first time
something like that had happened. In fourth grade, a girl told me that I wasn’t
invited to her birthday party because her parents said Black people steal. I’d
said her parents didn’t know what they were talking about. After I told my mom,
she stopped herself from cursing out, and said she didn’t want me going to that
racist family’s house anyway.’<o:p></o:p></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And so begins Zoe’s journey to discover the faraway truths
of life. Do innocent people really end up in prison particularly if they are
Black? Her father, Marcus is a tall, strong, dark skinned man. Zoe only has one
photograph of him. She learns that like her he is huge fan of Boston Celtics
basketball team, that he loves Stevie Wonder and calls her Little Tomato. He also
shares her interest in cooking. He tells her that he is innocent and that he
has an alibi. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Zoe begins to do some research and discovers some hard
truths about the justice system in America. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She and Trevor set out to find the truth and
locate a possible alibi. Their breath-taking journey across Boston literally
set my heart pounding. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The writing is sublime and the characters are so well drawn
and human. Mom is stubborn and has hidden previous letters but she is also
funny, smart and wise. Trevor has to learn the value of true friendship. There
is a great playlist to accompany the story too. Although it is set in America
the themes are equally relevant to the UK. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;">
<img alt="Media of Mohinder's War" src="https://media.bloomsbury.com/rep/f/9781472958389.jpg" /></div>
<br />
First the blurb...<br />
T<i>hirteen-year-old Joelle Breton stumbles across Indian-born RAF pilot Mohinder Singh when his plane crashes in occupied France and it's up to her and her parents to hide him from the Nazis. After all, her parents are brave members of the French Resistance and will do everything they can to help get Mohinder back to Britain. But when they are betrayed and tragedy strikes, Joelle and Mohinder will have to act fast if they are ever to evade the enemy.</i><br />
<br />
Mohinder is a young RAF pilot who crash-lands in France at the height of the war. To all appearances, Joelle is just a regular girl going about her business and helping her parents in the bakery, but appearances can be deceptive and Joelle and her family are part of the French Resistance. Joelle's family risk everything to protect Mo and are determined to keep him safe and see him home. Mo isn't a victim though, he's a fighter and being rescued is just part of his story. When death and danger come to Joelle's family, it's Mo who bravely honours his oath to them all with a daring plan to save Joelle's life and escape.<br />
<br />
The story is thrilling and I was on the edge of my seat reading it. At one point I realised I was holding my breath and willing things to go right for Mo, and for Joelle and her family. The book has all the expert crafting that I've come to expect from Bali Rai's work, and it has been condensed into a very fine little book indeed. A glimpse into a war from a perspective that is new to me, and I'm sure will be new to many other readers.<br />
<br />
Published by Bloombury as part of the Flashbacks series, this is another of their books written to give young readers a glimpse into a period of history that is outside their personal frame of reference. The series is excellent and the books written by some of the finest writers for children. There is a risk that books marketed as being "perfect for introducing children to historical topics" might only be found in the classroom, and that would be a great shame because books like Mohinder's War really should have a much wider audience.<br />
<br />
Mohinder's War is written by Bali Rai and published by Bloomsbury<br />
