Jacqueline Wilson's FUNNIEST, FIERCEST and most BELOVED new heroine JESS BEAKER returns for another AMAZING ADVENTURE.
Jess and Tracy Beaker have found happiness in The Dumping Ground. Not that Dumping Ground- the children's home that Tracy grew up in- but a seaside antique shop full of treasures, along with Flo, the owner, and Alfie, their dog.
Jess is looking for a fantastic new boyfriend for her mum (mostly because Tracy's awful ex Sean is back on the scene). But Jess has bigger problems of her own. She's being picked on by a local kid who's got it in for her. But when Jess uncovers the truth about her new enemy, it means big changes for the Beaker Girls...
*The SEQUEL to the award-winning MY MUM TRACY BEAKER*
Praise for Tracy Beaker:
'Wilson can still step effortlessly into the mind of a nine year old, and her chatty prose will sweep you along' - The Daily Telegraph
'This warm-hearted story about the importance of family and friends is classic Jacqueline Wilson' - First News
'[A] cosy woolly jumper of a book about wish fulfilment and its alternatives' - The Observer
During the COVID-19 pandemic, many children have been introduced to wearing face masks and seeing others in masks. Author and illustrator Marla Lesage normalizes mask-wearing by introducing young readers to artists, ranchers, pilots, welders, scientists and many more people who already wear masks in their day-to-day lives. This delightful, rhyming picture book will help explain to children why wearing a mask is important as we interact with others in our communities. Readers will learn that, when they put on their mask, they are choosing to be kind and considerate of others.
We Wear Masks is a fun tool to help children make sense of this new reality and make wearing masks less scary and more relatable. This book can be used as a conversation starter about the pandemic, the spread of germs and viruses, and what families can do to keep themselves and the people they care about safe.

Imagine being forced to move to a new planet where YOU are the alien! From the creator of the Tapper Twins, New York Times bestselling author Geoff Rodkey delivers a topical, sci-fi middle-grade novel that proves friendship and laughter can transcend even a galaxy of differences.
The first time I heard about Planet Choom, we'd been on Mars for almost a year. But life on the Mars station was grim, and since Earth was no longer an option (we may have blown it up), it was time to find a new home.
That's how we ended up on Choom with the Zhuri. They're very smart. They also look like giant mosquitos. But that's not why it's so hard to live here. There's a lot that the Zhuri don't like: singing (just ask my sister, Ila), comedy (one joke got me sent to the principal's office), or any kind of emotion. The biggest problem, though? The Zhuri don't like us. And if humankind is going to survive, it's up to my family to change their minds. No pressure.
Welcome to Barksdale, where all the dogs strive for perfection. Every shopkeeper claims to be the "best groomer" or sell the "best
biscuits." And at Barksdale Academy, the pressure is on for one pup to be named Best in Show.
Duke's cousin Coco, a French bulldog from Paris, is visiting for the K-2 loyalty exam. During this exam, the Underdogs and their
classmates will participate in a field day event against a rival school.
Coco is cool, funny, and charming-especially compared to the Underdogs. So when it comes time to choose teams, it's no
surprise she ends up on Team Awesome instead of with her cousin Duke and his friends.
But during the K-2 exam, Coco can't seem to get anything right! She trips during the six-legged race, and drops everything that's
thrown to her. If Barksdale loses the field day events, everyone-including the Underdogs-will fail their loyalty exam!
Can the Underdogs come to Coco's rescue-and save their school's reputation?
