|title=David Bowie: Starman: A Colouring Book
|rating=4
|genre=Crafts
|summary=David Bowie's death in January 2016 came as a shock to me: we were much of an age and he'd always seemed so ''vital''. But his final album, ''Blackstar'', seemed to foretell his death and was a commercial success, coming in at number one in the UK Top 100 Albums Chart, and the ''David Bowie Is'' exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum is the most successful exhibition ever staged by the V&A. But what of a more relaxing memory of the man who was part genius and part chameleon?

|summary=Charlie Chaplin dominated the formative years of the cinema, as actor and director, like no other. As we are told in an early chapter of this book, on his first visit to America in 1910, he is alleged to have shouted, ‘I am coming to conquer you. Every man woman and child shall have my name on their lips!’ Within a few years he had indeed conquered the entire movie-going world

|title=A Wish Your Heart Makes : From the Grimm Brothers' Aschenputtel to Disney's Cinderella
|rating=4.5
|genre=Entertainment
|summary=It's not a useful thing, to have sniffy presumptions, when you're a humble book reviewer. The same applies of course in the world of cinema, and a lot else besides, but I do have to admit to be really quite dubious about the thought of a live action remake of Cinderella, even before seeing, reading or hearing anything on which to form a proper judgement. Did the world need it, I wondered – the original was great enough, and surely so much a sine qua non in animation history. What would some new young cast members, and Kenneth Branagh, add to – or possibly would they overlay – decades of cinema audiences' joint memory? Surely it would be a pig's ear. Well, if this luscious first book regarding the new film is any indication, it's actually going to be pretty good. The format of film tie-in guides itself doesn't always engender much hope in the likewise prejudiced – but I confirm this, too, is an item well worth bearing in mind.
