|title=The Sword of Kuromori
|author=Jason Rohan
|rating=4.5
|genre=Confident Readers
|summary=Greek legends seems to have been done to death in YA and MG recently, there’s been a fair amount influenced by Norse mythology over the years, and Rick Riordan’s Kane Chronicles are probably the most popular of several books and series which have brought us stories based on that of Egypt. Japanese culture doesn’t seem to have played as big a part (although we’re huge fans of [[Stormdancer by Jay Kristoff]] and [[Kinslayer (Lotus War Trilogy 2) by Jay Kristoff|Kinslayer]] at The Bookbag) so it’s refreshing to see an adventure here featuring ''kappas'', ''nure-onnas'', and ''oni'', amongst other fearsome creatures.

|title=Horrid Henry's Krazy Ketchup
|summary=There are bugs and there are bugs. The latest ultra-secret British security body, SWARM, uses both at the same time – micro-robots based around the forms of a mosquito, scorpion, spider, butterfly, stag beetle, dragonfly and centipede. They're only supposed to be showing themselves off as surveillance operatives while a high-tech weapon device is transported by a sole human agent across London, when it's stolen. The dangers of it being in the wrong hands, the very fact that the demonstration failed, and the disapproval of the Home Secretary at not knowing SWARM ever was on the cards in the first place, all pile the pressure onto the tiny robots' shoulders…

|title=Tom Gates: A Tiny Bit Lucky
|author=Liz Pichon
|rating=3.5
|genre=Confident Readers
|summary=It's enrichment week at Tom Gates' school, which means lessons in unlikely subjects, such as pizza cooking and film-making. It's been badly tagged onto the school's inspection period, too, so the staff – who have never been appreciative enough of Tom's ways at doodling and ways into and out of scrapes – are even more on tenterhooks. It's also enrichment week at home, with Tom's parents deciding he needs less time watching TV and more time witnessing dad get all excited about making a kite. Tom's enrichment ideas for himself involve doodling more, rocking with his school band, and eating more caramel wafers, but he's not going to get his own way – the only one who will is the new neighbourhood cat from next door…
