Jake And The Nefarious Glub

G.A. Franks

Sinopsis

It’s the first teatime of the summer holidays, and things have already started to go wrong for Jake Starling. When Jake’s mum signs him up for a super boring reading competition, he’s convinced that his summer holiday is definitely ruined.
 
But a mysterious trip to the library leads to a bonkers magical adventure, where Jake meets a very strange new friend, in a very, very unusual place. A warm summer evening turns into an exciting race against time, when Jake and his friends encounter a vile creature known as The Nefarious Glub!
 
If you’re reading this, then well done! You have found a brilliant book and you should definitely read it! But be warned: if you enjoy sensible stories about princes and princesses and puppies and kittens, this isn’t the book for you. ‘Jake and the Nefarious Glub’ is full of all sorts of gross and yucky things, and might make you laugh so much that some snot comes out of your nose. Don’t say you weren’t warned...

Kicked Out

A. M. Dassu

In this stand-alone companion novel to the acclaimed Boy, Everywhere, A. M. Dassu returns to extend the story of Sami’s best friend Ali, who organizes a charity soccer match for their friend Aadam while his whole life is privately unraveling.
After their friend Mark’s mum wins the lottery and gets a giant house with an indoor pool, Ali and Sami have been having the time of their lives hanging at Mark’s house. Even their friend Aadam gets a job there, which means he can make more money for his legal battle for UK residency. But when some money goes missing, Aadam is accused of stealing it—and all three boys are unceremoniously kicked out of Mark’s house in suspicion.
On top of that, Ali’s dad, who abandoned the family when Ali was little, is suddenly turning up everywhere in town, and a half-brother Ali never knew has shown up at Ali’s school. Ali feels miserable and resentful about it, making it hard to be a good friend.
The boys know Aadam is innocent, and if he doesn’t raise thousands of pounds right away, he could get deported back to Syria amidst its civil war. At least Ali has a plan: they’ll host a charity football penalty match to raise money for Aadam so he can stay in the UK.
But can Ali pull together the match—even if he feels his whole life at home is falling apart?
"This tale of boyhood friendship and caring for your community [is] perfect for reluctant readers who want satisfying resolutions, a lot of playing with friends, and relatable characters who provide new insights into the lived experiences of immigrants and refugees."—Booklist
