  There’s no accounting for Miracles, at least that’s what the folks of Glimmer Creek say. Every year, one lucky inhabitant survives danger, and bits of magic cling to them for a lifetime.  
   
  Rosie Flynn doesn’t know how to get a Miracle but knows for sure they’re real. It’s the same way she’s certain she’ll always have her two best friends, Henry and Cam, that she’ll be a famous film director someday, and that she and her mama are the perfect team of two.  
   
  But when someone Rosie loves goes missing, she just might discover that the true Miracle of Glimmer Creek is much different than she’d always believed, and that the relationships she holds dear are the most fortunate gift of all.

  Xuanzang and his disciples encountered Guanyin waiting to remind them to be careful in the nearby kingdom. Its king was hunting for four monks to complete his goal of killing ten thousand. The monkey stole clothes from some locals to conceal their identities as Buddhist monks. They entered the city and decided to sleep in a big trunk in a hostel to make sure no one could discover they were Buddhists while they slept. While in the trunk, the monkey baited hostel attendants by boasting that they were carrying a lot of silver. Local bandits got the word and stole the trunk containing the group in the middle of the night. However, soldiers noticed the burglars and fought to get the trunk back and presented it to the king. The monkey snuck out and shaved everyone in the royal palace bald with razors. The king was shocked the next day and realized that he had made many mistakes. When the group exited the trunk, the king decided to honor Buddhism and let the pilgrims leave safely.

As Rosemary grows into her new life like a flower in bloom, she realizes that maybe she's not as far from home as she thought. 
   
   Tender, sophisticated, and sweet, this is a beautiful story about memory, family, and identity.

  Vinny needs support from his agony-aunt mum, but she’s too busy helping other people to notice in this empathetic tale about family and mental health by bestseller Helen Rutter. 
  Vinny’s got problems – lots of them. His family's falling apart, and his best mates have dumped him for some really annoying girls. 
  He should be able to turn to his mum for help – she’s an online life coach who answers other people’s problems for a living. But she’s too busy to see that Vinny is really struggling. 
  Unable to solve his own issues, Vinny starts replying to unanswered posts on an old blog of his mum’s. At first the solutions seem easy, and he can be as hilariously honest as any 12-year-old boy would be, but what will happen when Vinny realises he’s out of his depth? 
  Particularly suitable for readers aged 9+ with a reading age of 8. 
  For fans of Marcus Emerson (Kid Youtuber 9), Katherine Rundell (The Explorer), T.Z. Layton (The Academy), Lisa Yee (DC Super Hero Girls), and Allan Woodrow (The Battle of the Werepenguins).
