|title=The Story of a Seagull and the Cat Who Taught Her to Fly
|rating=4
|genre=Confident Readers
|summary=In the world of this book, danger brings people together, but adversity brings them together even more firmly. On the one hand we have Zorba, the big fat black cat, who was once swallowed by a pelican as a kitten, and now has been abandoned – well, temporarily, as his human child owner is away for a long time. But we also have a seagull, busy fishing when the alarm rings out and therefore left alone to be swamped by an oil slick. Trying to take her last flight, she crashlands on Zorba's balcony, and promptly delivers an egg – and with her dying breath procures the promise of the cat to look after the hatchling until Zorba can teach it to fly. But surely a lesson in flight from a cat is beyond even the binds of adversity?

|summary=Hello. I is very happy to be giving a positive verdict on a third adventure for Pig, who speaks Pig, his best friend Duck, who speaks Pig but in a Duck font, and their best friend Cow who speaks bad. This time the Chickens who was the evil ones is not hardly even mentioned, and the Cat that scared Pig and everyone else in [[The Super Amazing Adventures of Me, Pig by Emer Stamp|his second book]] is barely thought of, but there is another bad character to make up for it. But first I is having to report that Pig and Cow and Duck are making a big trouble for themselves, which is causing them to try and save the day and by mistake making the bad character notice Cow. And when I tells you the big trouble happens because Cow tries to hide Cow on the Farmer's roof you will knows just what a silly diary this series is.

|title=Superhero Street
|rating=4.5
|genre=Confident Readers
|summary=Having really enjoyed the first book about the children on Storey street, [[Demolition Dad by Phil Earle and Sara Ogilvie]] I was looking forward to this follow up. This time the focus is on Mouse who lives in a rather manic household since after having Mouse his mother had twin boys, and then triplets! Whilst his father is exhausted from trying to earn a living as a magician, his mother is, as you can imagine, run ragged with all the children, and Mouse feels rather neglected. Mouse has a secret means of escape, however, because he leads an imaginary double life and his secret identity is Mouse the Mighty! But what happens when he is forced to become a hero in real life?
