|title=Spring According to Humphrey
|rating=4.5
|genre=Confident Readers
|summary=Spring, of all things, is a dead end. The class, given the homework task of finding signs of spring, are just failing and failing, what with the bad weather. And nobody can come up with any useful ideas for the class theme at the school's Family Fun Day, as being clowns has been nicked by someone else.

|title=Queen Guinevere and Other Stories from the Court of King Arthur
|rating=4
|genre=Confident Readers
|summary=I always enjoy a story with a feisty heroine, so the prospect of a whole collection of stories telling me about the women behind the men in the Arthurian legends definitely had an appeal to me!
