Ellie doesn't want to as its just another move she can do without bit her mother insists as her father is going away to another job and she can’t look after her.

It’s a fantastic independent book seller that will actually be responsive and select appropriate books for you. A cautionary tale of brats, cats and a little bit of magic from much loved and best-selling author Malorie Blackman, brought to life in a delightfully fun reading by actor Esme Sears.

Her best-loved books include the highly acclaimed Noughts and Crosses sequence and Pig Heart Boy, which also became a major BBC TV series. This experience has been fantastic primarily for the children, the school and also for me (professionally). There are very few illustrations in this book which I didn't like but a varied range of vocabulary to boost the children's literacy development.

She has been described by The Times as ‘a national treasure’ and was the Children’s Laureate 2013-15. She has been awarded numerous prizes for her work, including the Red House Children’s Book Award, and has also been shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal. Malorie Blackman mixes comedy with a moral message in this sparky tale of Ellie whose rude, disagreeable behaviour at Grandma’s house leads witchy Grandma to label her a brat and cast a spell on her.Ellie doesn't take to her life as a cat but what she does find is Jolly isn't very well thought of by the other creatures in and around grandma’s house. Your selection was perfect for our children and what really made the difference was your ability to engage with each child, discuss their interests and help them to choose a suitable book based on your extensive knowledge of the books you were selling. When Amira's magical cat goes missing, she must embark on a perilous quest to save him, calm a mythical stormbird, and discover the truth about her past. Tom's scrapbooks are always fascinating, full of photographs, notes and snippets of history that inspire his books, and this one is no different! In a dyslexia-friendly format, this is a magical and gently comic tale of friendship and thinking of others.
