|title=Ostrich
|author=Matt Greene
|rating=5
|genre=General Fiction
|summary=[[The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time by Mark Haddon]] deserves every piece of praise it received, as a children's novel with plenty to interest older readers and a wonderful way of portraying Asperger's Syndrome through its narrator, Christopher Boone. ''Ostrich'' by Matt Greene follows quite similar lines, although this time the narrator, Alex, has a brain tumour.

|summary=It was hard enough for Emily to cope with the news that she was adopted. She had missed all of the signs, but now everything seemed painfully obvious. She didn’t resemble her sisters and brother, with their slender, delicate features. 'They belonged together.' It was clear that Emily was different from the rest of her family, but the real shock was when she realised ''how'' different she was. The Feather family were not even human. They were high-ranking fairies and their home served as a gateway between the human and fairy realms.

|title=Blood and Guts and Rats' Tail Pizza
|author=Vivian French and Chris Fisher
|rating=5
|genre=Emerging Readers
|summary=Despite a revolting menu with dishes like slug and snail stew or rats' tail pizzas, Billy Bone's café was usually packed at lunchtime. Perhaps because there was no other place to eat. All of their customers were male, because neither Billy Bones, nor his assistant Hank liked girls at all. A large sign in the window proclaimed ''Absolutely No Girls! But one day the customers disappeared - and what was worse, Hank soon discovered their customers had all been stolen by girls. The girls were very large, green and hairy but they were girls nonetheless, and their traveling cake shop had enticed all of Billy Bone's customers away.
