|title=Rabbit and Bear: The Pest in the Nest
|rating=4
|genre=Emerging Readers
|summary=Rabbit was struggling. There he was having a nice, peaceful sleep in his friend Bear's cave when a terrible noise woke him. Was it thunder? No, it was Bear snoring. Very loudly. Rabbit tried putting his paws over his ears although that's not very successful when you have small paws and very big ears. But there was something good: when Rabbit went outside the cave he realised that spring had sprung. Suddenly he felt ''strong''. After a winter spent in his friend Bear's cave it was time to go home to his burrow. Only there was a surprise lurking there - and it looked suspiciously like a snake.

|summary=Clare didn't enjoy the journey down to Devon. Her parents always argued and it was usually because Mum had lost her way or got caught in a traffic jam and this time she'd done both. It was a little better when they got to Aunt Dora's house, but Aunt Dora wasn't exactly a peacemaker and tended to stick up for Dad against everybody else. The holiday improved when Clare got out for a walk on her own and discovered a stray lamb on the road. She took it to the nearest house and Mr Jones was delighted: Clare had just saved half his flock. Clare got on with the old man - and with his horse, Captain.

|title=Mad in the Back
|rating=3.5
|genre=For Sharing
|summary=Mum is setting off on a long car journey with two kids in the back - did I hear you groan? Mum groaned too because she ''knew'' what was going to happen. She told the kids before she set off that they had to behave because she couldn't drive properly if the kids were going ''mad in the back''. The kids told her not to worry - and off they went. Then the kids started ''The Moaning''. Every parent will know exactly what this means: requests for drink, food, windows open... Then the squabbling starts: accusations that ''HE'' has got my book, ears are bitten by ''HER''. Mum tries diversionary tactics: ''look out of the window - there's a lamp-post''. (Yes MUm - we know desperation when we hear it.) And it gets worse. And worse. Then Mum snaps.
