King Wolf, His Wolfiness, has declared the rabbits don't exist, but the pesky birds have spread rumours from awing that the bunnies are in fact still around. Demanding a propaganda spree, King Wolf orders a humble monkey to be his official portrait photographer, but whatever the poor innocent monkey prints out in his darkroom there is a distinct leporine hint. Can King Wolf succeed in proving himself victorious, can the rabbits show their continued existence to all who need to know of it – and what can the poor monkey caught in between do?

|author=Innosanto NagaraMax Boucherat|title=M is for Movement|rating=4|genre=Emerging Readers|summary=Set in Indonesia, in the not too distant past, this is a story about social change. Dealing with some difficult issues, such as political corruption and nepotism, the book is neither boring nor preachy. It educates gently, with vibrant, challenging illustrations, and it portrays how social movements need people who will try, even when it seems that they will fail. The message is a positive one; that in an increasingly uncertain world, we do still have the power to instigate change.|isbn=1609809351}} =='''28 NOVEMBER'''=={{Frontpage|isbn=1780894511|title=Die Alone|author=Simon Kernick|rating=4|genre=Thrillers|summary=Ray Mason is in prison awaiting trial for murder and he's in the vulnerable prisoner unit: as a cop he's something Last Life of a target, but the unit is not as secure as the inmates would have hoped and Mason is injured in a riot.

A great deal of money had been spent to find out what happened to her and the conclusion was that she was dead, mainly because there was no evidence to suggest otherwise. Kitty has come to terms with this and in 1933 she was running the Dolphin Hotel in Dartmouth with her grandmother, when her grandmother had to leave to look after her sister who was ill. She was reluctant to leave Kitty in charge - and Kitty could not understand why. She's always coped with the mix of holidaymakers, boating people and the naval college on the edge of town before - and she's done every job in the hotel. And she particularly cannot understand why her grandmother's friends have been roped in to keep an eye on things ''and'' why Captain Matthew Bryant has been hired to take charge of security at the hotel.}} |}{|class-"wikitable" cellpadding="15" =='''9 JANUARY 2020'''== <!-- Sarah Alderson -->|-| style="width: 10%; vertical-align: top; text-align: center;"|[[image:1473681847.jpg|link=http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1473681847/ref=nosim?tag=thebookbag-21]]  | style="vertical-align: top; text-align: left;"|===[[In Her Eyes by Sarah Alderson]]=== [[image:5star.jpg|link=Category:{{{rating}}} Star Reviews]] [[:Category:Thrillers|Thrillers]] Ava lives a charmed life, but those things sometimes rub other people up the wrong way.
