|author= Helen Moss
|title= Secrets of the Tombs 2: The Dragon Path
|rating= 5
|genre= Confident Readers
|summary= They don't actually intend to have an adventure: quite the opposite, in fact. As far as fifteen-year-old Ryan and his friend Cleo are concerned, being chased by bad guys and falling down deep holes is seriously over-rated. But they're on their way to China with their parents anyway, so they can hardly refuse when Cleo's grandmother asks them to put a jade bracelet she's had for eighty years back where it belongs. Where's the harm?

|summary=Luke Manchett really isn't that upset when he gets the news that his father has died. You might think that's a tad harsh, but Luke has been estranged from his father for years. His primary concern is his mother, who is disabled by crushing cluster headaches. So, rather than worry her, Luke heads off to a lawyer's office to deal with the reading of his father's will by himself. And he gets a shock. Luke's inheritance adds up to six million dollars. SIX MILLION!

|author=Alistair McGuinness
|title=Half a World Away: Surviving the Move to a Land Down Under
|rating=4.5
|genre=Autobiography
|summary=Sometimes you read about a particularly exciting time in an author's life but later you find yourself wondering how they're doing, how life worked out for them. Since I read [[Round the Bend: From Luton to Peru to Ningaloo, a Search for Life After Redundancy by Alistair McGuinness]]about eighteen months ago I've often wondered how he and Fran were doing in Australia and I was delighted when ''Half a World Away'' landed on my desk. When we left Ali and Fran they'd had an exciting and eventful year during which they'd travelled through Central and South America and then on to Africa, but they were planning to settle down in Australia. Don't worry if you haven't read ''Round the Bend'' as both books read well as stand alones and you can always go back to the first book later, can't you?
